Hands of Mercy Medical Scholarship Program
Despite progress in recent years, Honduras remains one of the poorest countries in the world, with most of the population living in extreme poverty. Even before the recent devastation from hurricanes Eta and Iota in 2020, and the effects of Covid-19, almost 15% of the population lived on less than $2.00 per day. One family at a time, we are working to change that. |
Meet Celeste
Celeste’s family lives in Danli, Honduras. She has been working with medical mission teams since she was a child, and has discovered a passion for medicine. She dreams of becoming a surgeon, and plans to dedicate her life to helping others in Honduras. Celeste began her college and medical school journey in the Spring of 2021. Since then, we have been providing a scholarship for her tuition, books, and fees, as well as helping her family with living expenses so that she can focus on her studies. But we need your help. For as little as $1 per day, you can help lift Celeste’s entire family out of poverty for good, and provide her with an education and career that will not only benefit her family, but her entire community. |
