Problem

Many people in the poorest regions of Honduras lack access to clean water and basic sanitation facilities. This makes them vulnerable to many diseases and prevents them from irrigating their fields.

The Gift

Your gift will improve the quality of life for rural communities. Honduras is one of the poorest countries in the Americas. CRS Honduras is working with our partner to meet the water needs of poor farm families. This project includes the construction of gravity-based irrigation systems that are best suited for the rocky, hilly terrain of the project sites. It also provides education and training on best practices in sanitation and hygiene. Your generous gift of $52 will provide clean water and basic sanitation for one family of four for one year.
