  2. The people are trained in the USA to speak Spanish, teach others about LGBT and journalists using simple words for children to understand, and to know which topics are best to avoid (religion, politics), and know how to survive in unsafe conditions.
  3. 50 people will be sent. The people will bring food with them for the children to be interested. If they are hungry, the children will want to come in to listen to the lesson and get food.
  4. The people sent will not all stay together. They will spread out to cover more land in groups of four.
  5. Plane fare for round-trip will be $1,562 X 50 =$78,000. Food for volunteers will be $8 a day, multiplied by 50 people by 60 days=$24,000. Housing will cost $800 for two months. Security will cost $600. Food for the children will cost $2,000. Utilities will be $110 per person, so $11,000 for 50 people for 2 months. The total amount needed will be $116,000, but we need $200,000 in case.
  6. The money will come from fundraisers in wealthy and safe countries who want to participate: $50,000 and from any countries who want to donate about $150,000 (whatever amount accepted).
  7. The program will continue if crime rates decrease 30% in 3 years in Honduras.
  8. We will compare how much the crime rates have decreased from before and after the volunteers went to teach children in Honduras.
