How can I help?
Peace
Corps Donations can be delivered in various ways.
Donating directly to a project through our NGO partner
Water and Sanitation Health allows Volunteers to receive
100% of donations directly. Peace Corps also has
Partnership Grants which allow Volunteers to apply to
have their projects funded from donations via the Peace
Corps. If time or useful items are at what you're
willing to offer, we can put those to good use too. |

Working
with Volunteers
At least
once during two years of service a Peace Corps
Honduras Volunteer will work with other volunteers
from the United States: medical brigades,
dental brigades, research groups,
volun-tourists, engineers or any type of
service oriented people or groups.
Volunteers work in various
projects around every part of Honduras (except
the department of Gracias a Dios). If you or your
group are coming to Honduras and are interested in
contacting a Volunteer in Honduras please
contact
us and we may be able to put you in touch.
Note:
Peace Corps Honduras, The United States Peace Corps
and Peace Corps Volunteers do not take
responsibility for anyone working with Peace Corps
Volunteers. This includes any personal, physical,
financial or other liabilities which may be incurred
in coming to, working in and traveling back from
Honduras.
