Why adopt from Honduras?

Honduras has captured the hearts of many people that have done mission work within the country. Spending time with the beautiful children of Honduras often leads to a desire to help in a deeper way.  

Poverty within the country has left many families little choice but to abandon or place their children at orphanages or on the street. The orphan population within the country is at an all time high. The adoption process in Honduras is long and often difficult, but worth the fight for those precious children in need of a family. Families also like the idea of being close enough to Honduras geographically to be able to continue a relationship of service to the country.
