What is the Central Honduras Education Fund?
The Central Honduras Education Fund was established in 2005 to provide full academic scholarships to rural Honduran students wishing to earn a college degree in Honduras. In 2010 we expanded our support to include students wanting to complete a high school degree.
In addition to academic achievement, our vision is for Scholars to become self-sufficient and productive citizens, positively contributing to the development and capacity of their rural Honduran communities.
Our organization is currently supporting 15 students in their pursuit of either a high school (12 students) or college (3 students) degree in Honduras.
"La Fundación Educativa de Honduras Central es una organización autónoma, sin fines de lucro, apolítica y que busca la excelencia academica Hondurena."
