Monitoring the Pueblo Nuevo Water Project
Fundesur, in collaboration with Operation Blessing and Global Brigades, conducted a follow-up tour of the Pueblo Nuevo +5 Water Project, a key initiative to ensure access to clean drinking water in Isla Boca de Río Viejo. During this visit, essential components such as the well, pumping system, storage tank, and distribution line were evaluated to ensure their optimal functionality.
This effort is crucial to ensuring that the project meets its goal of providing a consistent and safe supply of drinking water. Collaboration with community representatives and strategic partners has been vital to the project's progress, demonstrating that working together can create significant impact. Fundesur remains committed to improving the quality of life in southern Honduras, advancing its mission to provide essential resources and foster sustainable development in the region.

Turning Dreams into Realities: The Story of "Las Creativas"
Since 2023, Fundesur has had the honor of supporting a group of 10 brave women from the community of La Bonanza, Namasigüe, on their journey to success. Known as "Las Creativas," these entrepreneurs have passionately dedicated themselves to the craft of making artisanal piñatas, an art that not only brings joy to celebrations but also transforms lives. Thanks to our support in technical training, management, and marketing, "Las Creativas" have now achieved an impressive milestone: securing a contract with the Association of Integral Employee Development (ADI) to sell 500 piñatas. This achievement represents not only the fruit of their labor but also a significant contribution to the local economy. At Fundesur, we believe in the power of small entrepreneurs to transform family economies and generate jobs that benefit the entire community. "Las Creativas" are a living example of how, with support, discipline, and dedication, a dream can be turned into a reality that positively impacts their lives and those of many others.

The new facilities include 10 fully equipped areas that will ensure a proper and dignified environment for the residents' healthcare. This project would not have been possible without the commitment and collaboration of our strategic partners. Seafresh Group and Marks and Spencer have been key players in this initiative, along with the essential support of the Namasigüe Municipality, the local community, Grupo Granjas Marinas, and Fundesur. Their generosity and dedication have been vital in making this space a reality, which now stands as a cornerstone in improving community health. This center is a testament to the power of collaborative work and the positive impact it can have on people's lives.
