• 60 to 70% of the people in Honduras live in poverty.

• 20 to 30% of elementary school children drop out so they can search for food.

• The Issue: How can these children learn if they're hungry?

Since 2004 Lunches for Learning has helped break the cycle of poverty in rural southwest Honduras. Our success is proven, our strategy is simple, and our method is cost effective. By providing children a lunch at school, enrollment increases; access to nutritional supplements and rudimentary health care improves; and families join together to build and enhance community facilities.
 
Lunches for Learning utilizes the cooperative efforts of individual contributors, corporate sponsors, school communities, and the government of Honduras. Lunches for Learning is a registered not for profit, 501 (c) 3 corporation.

We encourage you to explore our website and discover how you can team with us to help the children of Honduras grow, succeed, and break the cycle of poverty.
