The stark reality in Honduras is that young children and families living in abject

poverty have no access to quality medical and dental care. At Casa de Luz, we are

changing that reality!

We make the health and wellness of our children and families a priority by partnering

with Honduran and North American dentists, dental hygienists, orthodontists,

optometrists, doctors, and nurses to bring high quality care to impoverished

Honduran communities.  Our partnership with these professionals improves the

quality of life for hundreds of children, teens and adults participating in Casa de Luz

programs.

Casa de Luz children, families and communities benefit from:

• Well-child check-ups
• Medical Treatment for the Ill
• Access to quality medications
• Access to accurate dental and medical information to replace dangerous superstitions which put children, pregnant moms and the elderly at risk
• Wellness coaching and education in the areas of nutrition, diabetes, hypertension, parasites and lice
• Teeth cleanings
• Dental work such as fillings and crowns
• Eye exams and appropriate eye-wear
