Needs List
Please note: For many years Mission Honduras has been trying to find an economical means to get packages and supplies down to Honduras, and we still do not have a means other than asking a volunteer to hand carry packages there. A small 1-2 pound package can cost $30-$50 to send to Honduras. Packages may be overly inspected by Honduran Customs and items may not arrive at all. If you have Priority Items from this list, we will try to assist you in finding someone who can carry the donation to Honduras. Please do not ship any packages larger than a 12”X14” envelope to the Chicago office of Mission Honduras without prior arrangements. If you are a volunteer going to Honduras and could carry some extra items, please let us know. Please direct any questions or concerns about donations to (773) 631-2916 or send an e-mail to donations@missionhonduras.com.
