Hope and Help for our Honduran Village Hospital
Hospital Socorro de lo Alto is a hospital in rural Sula Honduras, a 501(c)3 non-profit.

Poverty is a major issue in Honduras with 66% living in poverty, making it one of the poorest countries in the world.
Health care is difficult to access, especially in the rural areas where there is 3.5 physicians per 10,000 people.
As if COVID isn’t enough to threaten the people and their livelihoods, Honduras has been ravaged by category 4 & 5 hurricanes within the past 4 months increasing the poverty, corruption, drug problems and unemployment, as well as threatening an already decrepit infrastructure. The lack of sanitization has caused an outbreak of malaria and other infectious diseases.
COVID has prevented our 17 brigades from going to Honduras since March 2020 to provide medical care and there is no guarantee that they will be able to return until approximately January 2022.
We are on a life-saving mission to keep our hospital open and serving the community until the brigades can return.
The hospital cannot stay open without adequate staff, otherwise, lives will be at risk.
The staff has already taken a pay cut, however, that may not be enough to keep the doors open.
How YOU can help!
Help us raise funds to maintain the staff needed to provide healthcare for patients affected by the COVID pandemic and emerging infectious diseases due to the hurricanes, as well as funds to maintain the equipment of the Hospital, make repairs to the roof that was severely damaged during the hurricanes...
$30,000 will keep 10 staff whose positions are at risk employed for 1 year.
BUT don't stop there... The need is endless.
YOU can make a difference!!!
Muchas Gracias y que Dios te bendiga, mi amigos.
