Honduras Latrine Project/ Lunches For Learning

Lunches for Learning is a nonprofit organization that provides a healthy lunch to school children every school day. The passion of one Rotarian in 2010 has resulted in over 2,500 children being served through Lunches for Learning. Initially L4L served 8 small schools. L4L now serves 46 schools.

This year, 8 RRC members serve on the L4L board. Covid took a toll on Honduras. Feb. 4th, 2021 LOL implemented a plan to once again deliver food to the kids in the L4L program.

Still not attending school, kids receive food packages for meals to be prepared at home. .

On Sunday, February 14th Hearts For Honduras Event Virtual Wine Tasting raised additional funds while answering the challenge to show "Rotary Has Heart" . This was our 9th year sponsoring this event. All proceeds were donated to Lunches For Learning.

Latrine Project: The latrines at 3 de Octubre school in the community of Sabana Redonda in Honduras needed to be replaced. The school is located in a remote and mountainous area in Southern Honduras. The latrines had no doors, were very old, and were no longer functioning. Roswell Rotary fully funded the materials and supplies for the new latrines with a $2000 donation; Lunches For Learning provided the project oversight; and community members volunteered the labor for the project. 3 de Octubre is one of 46 schools supported by the Lunches for Learning program .The latrines are complete thanks to the dedication of this community.
