El Hogar's schools provide a loving home & education for abandoned & orphaned children in Tegucigalpa, Honduras.

The mission of El Hogar Ministries, Inc. is to assist in the improvement of social and educational conditions in Honduras, principally by supporting El Hogar Projects. El Hogar Ministries, Inc. raises funds and maintains an office for coordination and communication with North American sponsors, contributors and outreach groups which form a sacred community of service and are the backbone of financial support for the 250 children at the three schools and homes of El Hogar Projects.

On May 6, 2012, an exciting event will take place in Cincinnati Ohio, the Flying Pig Marathon. This is the 14th annual year of this event. This year El Hogar is a Partner-level charity. Please see the Flying Pig website for more information.
