Hurricane ETA has deepened the challenges in the areas of economy, health, education, and employment that the most vulnerable communities in Honduras faced due to the almost 10 months of confinement as a preventive measure against COVID - 19. The heavy and constant rains that fall on most of the Honduran territory, added to the irregular topography, soil conditions and fragile infrastructure have caused entire cities today to be under water, isolated communities and hundreds of families have left their homes and are now housed in shelters.
The entire country was on a red alert, the most affected communities are in the northern part of the country and in the departments of Olancho and Francisco Morazán. More than 1.5 million of people have been affected
With your support, we have delivered food kits, hygiene and biosafety products, electric stoves, clothing and basic household items to more than 1000 families in the cities of La Lima, San Pedro Sula and Choloma. We will continue to support more families over the next several months.
