Empowering socially disadvantaged communities by supporting local organizations to improve health, education, and inclusive participation in sustainable development.
Help us Bring Joy to Kids in Honduras this Holiday Season
More than 89% of the population lives in poverty, and over 12% of children under five suffer from chronic malnutrition, putting their lives at risk and stunting their growth. For these communities, the holiday season is a reminder not just of hope but of the urgent need for essentials—nutrition, healthcare, education, and safe living conditions.
Multidimensional Poverty Index MPI
Wise Responder brings the internationally recognized “Multidimensional Poverty Index” (MPI) methodology, developed by the Oxford Poverty and Human Development Initiative (OPHI), to financial institutions, investors, and businesses.
OPHI created the MPI methodology to measure multidimensional poverty. Traditionally, countries have defined poverty as a lack of money. However, those experiencing poverty view it much more broadly. A poor person can suffer multiple deprivations simultaneously. Focusing on a single factor, such as income, is insufficient to capture the true reality of poverty and its effects on those affected by it.
Our programs
First Steps
First Steps supports the development of children under six in rural Honduras, serving 18 communities and over 1,300 children. The program has reduced malnutrition from 14.7% in 2013 to 4.3% in 2023 and aims to keep it below 6%.
Healthy Families
Healthy Families promotes self-care and healthier living for 2,350 families through projects like clean water, sanitary floors, latrines, stoves, and health education. The goal is to reduce severe poverty by 50% by 2030.
Thriving in School
The Thriving in School Program contributes to the comprehensive development of children and adolescents of school age through initiatives in pedagogical strengthening, food security, school health, children’s rights promotion, environmental sustainability, culture of peace, infrastructure improvement, and scholarships. The program reaches more than 3,200 children aged 4 to 15 in 28 public educational centers in rural communities with high poverty rates. The program aims to ensure that no cause prevents any child from attending school.
Education for All
The Education for All program provides alternative education opportunities to young people and adults in rural communities who have been excluded from the school system, contributing to improving the educational level of the population over 15 years old through literacy initiatives, opportunities to pursue accelerated primary education, alternative modalities to complete basic education (ninth grade), high school, and distance technical education. This program supports young people who neither study nor work, providing training to improve their employment opportunities.
Leaders in Action
Leaders in Action enhances the organizational and leadership skills of grassroots organizations in 18 high-poverty communities in Honduras, fostering inclusive participation in community development and promoting peace and sustainability.

Life Skills Education for Adolescents
Good morning, my name is Saul Gallo Domínguez, director of the Dionisio de Herrera school in the community of El Tular. We are developing a series of very important topics for 7th to 9th graders in collaboration with Fundación Agrolíbano. Among these topics is reproductive health. We are also using a digital platform so they can access it at home, and wherever they are.
