On behalf of the children we thank you for your support!
Music For Purpose makes a difference in honduras by:
PROVIDING MUSIC EDUCATION
There are no music schools in Honduras free of charge. Chamelecon is a neighborhood with many underprivileged children. Music is considered for only the wealth. Music For Purpose provides free music classes to all children no matter their status.
Providing food for our students
All of our students receive food during rehearsals
Providing a student store
Students receive fake money for attendance, homework and volunteer work such as sweeping the class room. The student store has school supplies, toiletries, clothing, toys and art supplies.

Providing brigades

Prostitution
An even bigger problem is the growing number of children who experience sexual exploitation. In the streets of Tegucigalpa, the country's capital, and in the city of Comayagüela, about 2,400 children are forced into prostitution. Although girls are especially at risk, the number of boys who experience sexual exploitation is on the rise.
