Honduras: La Lagunas. English post.

La Lagunas is a very small and primitive village, high in the mountains of Honduras, forgotten by God and the World! The poorest of the poor live here and are obliged to stay, because there is no possibility for them to find work in the cities. So they live from what they can gather in the woods or what can be planted in little gardens. The roof of their houses are still made from straw and little twigs and branches from the woods and the structure is built from dried mudbricks, that most often have to be repaired after the rainy season.

A very simple structure, made from wood with an earthern floor serves as school. There are neither tables nor chairs or even a blackboard to write on the theme of the lesson. During the rainy season then the floor is often under water and becomes mud and the lessons therefore cannot take place.

The children have to face lots of problems at their young age, before they can enjoy some schooling. They very often have no shoes and use pants and t-shirts with big holes and being passed on from older brothers and sisters. The villages has asked “Happy Bambini” for help to make a real classroom for the children, that they could have regular lessons in the future.

Therefore our Project would be:
A classroom of 40 mq, tables, chairs, a blackboard and a little library with books,which can be borrowed by the children. Only through an adaquate schooling, the social situation of the new generation can change for the better. If you love to give us a hand, we would be very grateful! And you will feel, how much love returns after such an action…….
