Maternity Home Project Update December 2017
The Connect Global Team is very excited about the progress of the Maternity Home fundraising as well as the building and construction efforts. Updated: December 29th
Together we have been able to raise over $131k towards our Maternity Home in La Ceiba, Honduras. Thank You!
We began raising funds for a desperately needed place for moms and expecting moms to rest just before and immediately after giving birth and are only weeks away from breaking ground.
We traveled to La Ceiba, Honduras with a team of 13 at the end of October. We were able to publicly dedicate the land at the hospital for the Maternity Home.
I am very excited about the project coming together and to be able to share this progress with you! As we were there praying over the land and the project, we received the approval for construction. This is a huge step forward as we have been waiting most of the summer for this process to be approved.
We are headed into the Rainy season for Honduras, which may delay some of the work, but we were expecting a slowdown for winter and we know the timing is perfect and being worked out on our behalf.
Thank you for all of your prayer and your support!

Our local contractor/architect, Eduardo Oviedo Jr. has done a fantastic job getting the plans ready and we are excited to be getting closer to ground breaking.

Connect Global Maternity Home Fundraising Update
Thanks to the overwhelmingly generous support we have received we will be making plans to break ground in 2018. We have been talking with several professional contractors in La Ceiba to finalize building standards and firm up a potential start date. We will inform you of the details when they are complete.
