Grant Description

Asociacin de Desarrollo Pespirense (ADEPES) in Honduras will offer support to 200 rural youths who are undertaking 16 development projects and launching 16 microenterprises in the municipality of Pespire, which is located in a sparsely populated and drought-stricken region of southern Honduras that barely supports survival.

This grantee's work is especially relevant today because it is addressing a demographic group that has been traditionally excluded from economic life and is prone to migrate. The project will benefit another 1,200 Hondurans indirectly.
