El Hogar Connects is a journey of learning and partnership Last month, visitors from Saint Timothy's Episcopal Church in Cincinnati and Christ Church Denver immersed themselves in the mission of El Hogar and the vibrant culture of Honduras. They engaged in meaningful discussions on education, development and caring for children from vulnerable circumstances and were able to experience the heart of our work firsthand. By spending time with our students, sharing stories, and exchanging ideas, our visitors have become an integral part of our El Hogar community. Together, we’re not just shaping brighter futures for our students but also fostering connections that will inspire change across borders. Thank you to everyone who joined us this year on an El Hogar Connects trip, and we invite anyone who is interested in coming to El Hogar to visit our website for more information including available dates for 2025 trips.
