Educate2Envision International Information

Educate2Envision International (E2E) is the only not-for-profit organization bringing secondary education, leadership training and entrepreneurship to some of the most isolated and difficult to reach communities in Honduras. In 2012, Educate2Envision opened doors to its first secondary school in Honduras — the result of a volunteer trip taken by founder Katia Gomez as a college student. E2E was created to address the numerous obstacles facing rural youth that desired to study beyond 6th grade. Growing up in a remote rural community meant that the nearest secondary school would be on average 4 hours walking plus transportation costs that were beyond their families’ means. E2E took notice that not only was Honduras largely left off the radar of many foundations’ sustainable education programs, but rural youth were not invested in equally. The projects that did arrive were largely short-term or donation-based. So we set out on a mission to nurture the human capital of rural youth leaders and equip them with the tools they needed to fight back against poverty through education, community service, and entrepreneurship.
