Mi Esperanza means “My Hope” and began in 2002 with a vision to provide assistance for women in the villages surrounding Tegucigalpa, Honduras. Mi Esperanza’s purpose is to lend free financial, educational, and motivational support to women living in extreme poverty in Honduras. This empowers them to begin their own free-enterprise business in their communities. By providing educational skills training and micro-business loans to women living in extreme poverty, Mi Esperanza is able to help improve the lives of many women and their families. Most of the women we help are single mothers who are supporting their families without any type of assistance or opportunity to change their life circumstances.  The lives of these women are centered around survival and trying to meet the most basic of needs of life; food, clean water, education, healthcare and shelter. Through Mi Esperanza, women are finding a new sense of hope, self-empowerment and stability. 

The free educational opportunities Mi Esperanza provides include  sewing courses, a cosmetology course, a computer technology course, and personal skills training. Mi Esperanza also has a social enterprise. We employ between four and six of our sewing school graduates to manufacture our retail line of fundraising products. 100 percent of the profits Mi Esperanza makes from our social enterprise goes directly back into the nonprofit to help sustain our organization and to continue to provide free educational training to women.
