San Pedro Sula, Honduras Support Trip

So not ever blogging about supporting others as was the main intent of the blog here are some pics of a recent trip I had the opportunity to participate in with my company. We went to 3 orphanages and a detention center.


I cannot stress the conditions and environment these children have to live in but am truly blessed to have been able to meet all of them. I literally had to find a room to hide into because I was physically tired of lifting all these kids over my head. I guess it doesn't matter where you are, kids like the helicopter ride.



I was also able to give away several of my wife's Beanie Babies to children at the Nueva Esperanza Center...



If you ever get the chance to go on a orphan/mission trip I highly recommend it. This particular trip was sponsored by my small company in conjunction with Orphan Helpers ( link on the top left of the blog).



We also got to set up a computer lab at the Mujeres Adolescentes center for the girls to use and learn on. No running water or air conditioning but we were able to get a 20 amp circuit for the 7 systems.



This was an awesome opportunity and I am truly grateful to have been given the opportunity. Although supporting children through other programs and monthly pledges is great, I now have 6 kids sponsored, this is truly an awesome experience. We are going back in a few months.
