A community that never forgets where it comes from
Hondurans in Action USA was born in Dallas, Texas, from Hondurans who wanted to give back to our land. We are a nonprofit organization made up of volunteers, families and businesses who believe in the power of unity.
Every contribution from our community becomes school supplies, food, medical care and projects that change lives — in Honduras and among Hondurans living in the United States.
