our team

Our team reflects the community we serve. We are committed to hiring strictly Hondurans for all in-country operations. For us, it is valuable for young Just One scholars to see Hondurans securing leadership positions and holding professional-level jobs. For scholars to see themselves as leaders, that needs to be reflected in our team. 

​

Creating cycles of opportunity is foundational to breaking cycles of poverty.
