Eternal Family Project (EFP)

Housing and related expenses: Efp cares for approximately 16 girls including housing, education, medical, food, etc. This program includes all costs of maintaining the home enviroment for the girls with food being the largest portion of the expenditures in this area. Occupancy, clothing, medical, fuel, and support staff make up the largest portion of the remaining expenditures. All of the support staff are former Efp girls who are now over the age of 18, some who donate all or a portion of their time for free to help with their "sisters." All expenses in this program are what might be seen in a typical Family budget.

University program: the university program helps the girls as they transition out of the houses and begin to search for careers on their own. This program typically helps 3-4 young women pursue college level education (the numbers fluctuate depending on the time of year). The purpose is to allow these young women to have opportunities generally not available to most young women in honduras. In return, most of these women help out with the younger girls whenever they can. Even though they no longer live in the main house, they are considered a part of the Efp Family and are very close to the girls in the home. The majority of these expenses are tuition and occupancy costs for the univeristy house in san pedro.

Learning center: the learning center is the school for the girls living in the home. Many girls lack a basic educational base when first coming to Efp so the purpose of the learning center is to determine where the girls are educationally and to work with them one on one or in a small group to tailor their education to their individual needs. The learning center also strives to find the unique gifts and talents of each girl and to help them develop confidence and poise.
