About Honduras
Honduras is one of the poorest countries in Latin America and nearly two thirds of the nation's population lives below the poverty line. UNICEF estimates there are over 170,000 orphans in Honduras. Orphan Outreach ministers in Honduras by partnering with local orphanages, churches, and Christian schools for children in extreme poverty situations. Our primary project is partnering with the AFE (Love, Faith and Hope) school that serves the 300 children working at the dump in Tegucigalpa.

Team Leader
Bob Beams, Volunteer Trip Leader, will lead the team in Honduras. Bob serves on the leadership team at 121 Community Church and is a faithful volunteer and supporter of Orphan Outreach. He is the president of Beams Land Investments in Fort Worth, Texas. After studies at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary and a Masters degree in social work from University of Texas at Arlington, Bob worked as a social worker for eight years. His work for the State of Texas focused on child protective services and family support programs. In 1975, he began a career in real estate development with a specialty in rural subdivisions. Throughout his career, Bob has served as a volunteer in family service programs in the community. Several times each year, since 1990, Bob has led mission trips to Mexico and Central America with his church and has been involved with Orphan Outreach in its work in Honduras since it began in 2007.
