Change a Child's Life Forever... Now.

Did you know..?

What we learn when serving on mission trips in Honduras 🇭🇳

We learn that love grows deeper when it is shared. We learn that joy is found not in possessions, but in people. We learn that unity makes us stronger, and that even the smallest act of kindness can carry eternal impact.

Serving in community reminds us that mission is not just about giving it’s about receiving lessons of humility, resilience, and hope from those we walk alongside. 

Every trip shapes us, every story transforms us, and every moment reminds us that God is at work through His people. 💛
Thanks to your support, classrooms at Double Hope in Uganda are now filled with children learning and building a brighter future.

Will you join us in filling more classrooms like this?

Here are just a few reasons we value these trips ( though we could go on for a few more pages if you’d like…. 😜)

(1) The teams that run these ministries always finish these visits very encouraged. Ministry is hard. These moments to step back and celebrate all God is doing are so important. 
(2) Hearts change when people step out of their comfort zone and visit another place to be a part of ministering to people of extreme need. We have seen this over and over again. 
(3) One of our roles as EEI is accountability. Though we work with people of amazing character, we still work hard to ensure we can account for how every dollar that is donated.
Hello, my name is David Maradiaga, I am 11 years old and I am in fifth grade.
I like studying at Llamado Eterno school because they teach us about the Bible and the teachers take care of us.
When I grow up, I want to be a police officer to protect the city.
I go to Llamado Eterno Church with my mom and my sister, and one day I would like to be the drummer of the church to exalt the name of God.

I have many dreams, and I am going to achieve them by working hard and with God’s help.
We’re glad to share the progress in building the perimeter fence on Double Hope’s new property in Uganda. This space, acquired with donor support, will provide greater safety and opportunities for the children at the orphanage. 🙌
At Empowering Education, we believe that every child at Double Hope for Orphans and Needy has a brighter future ahead. 

Behind every smile is a dream, and behind every dream is an incredible potential waiting to be unlocked.

🙏 Pray with us that nothing will stand in their way.
🤝 And if God puts it in your heart, sponsor a child and be part of the story He is writing in Uganda.

What an amazing trip to Double Hope so far. We will be sharing much more soon but for now here are some shots of their time together. 

Most of the group has left for a few final days of tourism while the three from Lighthouse stay at Double Hope a couple extra days. These will be some key days for them to work on some improvements for EEI. 

 - They just installed WiFi at Double Hope
 - Cindy brought a scanner and will be working with them on a new format for the end of year letters. 
 - This will help this work to be less complicated more timely. We really want sponsors and kids to feel connected. 

The need surrounding Double Hope is great. But the vision God gave Pastor Julius and Sarah is starting to come tog in new and exciting ways - to empower these kids to build a better future for themselves.
The mission team has arrived at Double Hope, Uganda!
With joy in their hearts, they’ve begun serving the children—bringing hope, love, and faith to every corner. 🇺🇬

As this day comes to a close, we invite you to pray with us:
🙏 That God's presence would fill every place
🙏 That each child and volunteer would be strengthened
🙏 And that every missionary would be protected under His care

Thank you for being part of this mission.
A vital part of our mission in Honduras is bringing hope where it’s needed most. Last month, our mission team went into some of the most vulnerable areas of the city to share the love of Jesus and preach the Gospel. Every smile, every prayer, and every moment was a seed of faith planted. ❤️
A special thanks to @tcwsoficial for supporting our work last week.

Your senior students did an incredible job helping us with translation during our mission activities.
In every school we visit and in every community facing hardship, we see faces full of hope.

These are the children who inspire our mission.
To everyone who prays, gives, or go to serve, you are making a difference.
Because at the heart of our mission… is seeing them smile.
The Hillside Church team is already in Honduras!
Excited for everything that will happen these next few days. 💪🇭🇳
Thanks to your support, many children in Uganda who once had no access to clean water can now drink with joy and hope. 🌍🙏
Your generosity is changing lives.

A look back at our last mission trip to Honduras 🇭🇳
Our first trip of the year is just around the corner!
In every classroom in Uganda, EEI is planting more than knowledge.
We’re providing nutritious meals, words of life, and a steady hope for every child walking toward a better future.

Because when a child learns, eats, and believes… everything can change. 🌍✨

Thank you to every sponsor who makes this possible.
This year, once again, we are supporting 5 senior students at "Instituto Tecnico Alejandro Flores in El Paraíso". Many of them come from rural communities where poverty and harsh climate conditions have deeply affected their families. In the midst of so many challenges, these young people have chosen to keep dreaming, to keep studying… and today, they have a new sense of hope.

Each of these students will be able to cover the costs of starting the school year and their graduation — a step that, for many, once felt out of reach. This scholarship isn’t just financial support; it’s a message that someone believes in them, that their efforts matter, and that they’re not alone.

The school’s teachers and leaders are the ones who select the scholarship recipients, because they know their stories, their struggles, and their desire to move forward. It’s a collaborative effort that reminds us that when community, faith, and generosity come together, amazing things happen.

A huge thank you to Mike and Karen Warner for supporting this project through the years. Your generosity continues to open doors and change lives. 🌟
This Mother’s Day, we celebrate the strong, loving, and resilient mothers in our communities — the women who sacrifice daily to give their children a better future, even when they have so little.

At Empowering Education, we walk alongside these brave mothers. Through education, support, and faith, we’re helping them break the cycle of poverty for the next generation.

💛 Behind every sponsored child, there's often a mother praying for a miracle.

Thank you, moms. Your love inspires our mission.

👉 Honor a mother today by sponsoring a child in her name. Give the gift of opportunity.
It’s truly amazing to see what has happened in just 8 years.
What started as a small dream in Danlí, Honduras, has grown into a place where more than 275 children are now being reached with quality education, daily care, emotional support, and the love of God.

And none of this would be possible without the generosity and faithfulness of our sponsors.

Thank you for believing in these children.
Thank you for investing in their futures.
Thank you for being part of this story of transformation. 💛
68%. That’s how many girls in Uganda drop out before finishing primary school.
Not because they can’t… But because poverty, teenage pregnancy, and forced marriage tell them they shouldn’t.
At EEI, we believe every girl deserves a desk, a dream, and a future.

Let’s change the numbers. 💪📚
#EmpoweringEducationInternational
26 new sponsored children have taken their first step toward a bright future this year. Thanks to your support, these little ones are beginning their journey in kindergarten, filled with dreams and new opportunities. Together, we are building a future full of hope, one child at a time!
This is what truly matters. This is what transformation with purpose looks like.
In Honduras, this family has been deeply impacted by the love of God and access to education.

Briana, Dylan, and Nestor are three sponsored children studying at Centro Cristiano de Educación Llamado Eterno. Their mom, Vanessa, is part of the kitchen team, and together with her husband, they serve at @llamadoeternomin.

A whole family being transformed by God’s love and the power of purposeful education.

✨ This is the impact of EEI — not just changing a child’s life, but entire generations.
The girls at @Double Hope for Orphans and Needy now have a new bathroom — safe, private, and dignified.

Thank you for building hope, health, and dignity one brick at a time.
Together, we’re building something beautiful.
We’re excited to share this incredible news the children at Double Hope for Orphans and Needy have received shoes!
Thank you for being a part of this journey and making a difference in their lives.
#EmpoweringEducationInternational
The high school students at Centro Cristiano de Educación Llamado Eterno are now using Chromebooks! Thanks to your help, they have access to computers—learning and getting ready for a future where technology is part of everything.

We are still needing more support to be able to bring more technology to the students at @ccellamadoeterno. If you want to help this effort, we have set up a separate fund for this. (link in bio)
Thanks for being part of this journey!
We believe in the power of education because we've seen it change lives.
It’s not just about teaching it’s about walking alongside every child through their journey. ✨
Every Saturday at Ministerio Cristiano Llamado Eterno, a tutoring program runs for our school students.
Children facing tough situations receive not only education, but also love and guidance beyond the classroom. 

Transformation begins when someone believes in them!

One of the things that makes EEI unique is the opportunity to go and meet your child. We invite you to come and be a part of one of these trips. They are lead by Hillside and Lighthouse respectively but they are open for others to join. Please reach out if you are interested. Or drop a message and let us know which trip you will be attending!

Mission trips are very much part of the heart and genesis of EEI. There is just something special in going and seeing the joy of the children and yet also the extreme need that exists, experiencing a different future, and worshipping in different languages.
Last week, we were able to facilitate a visit from Justin to Double Hope in Uganda after connecting with Empowering Education. He brought smiles with magic tricks—and a heart to help.

God is opening doors! His organization is now helping us gather books in the U.S. for the new library at Double Hope. Stay tuned for how you can be part of it!
Double Hope Uganda now has access to running water. In a place where this is a rare privilege, your support made it possible. Thank you for helping bring this vital change.
What an amazing day yesterday at @yourhillside Pastor Arturo and Ruth shared with everyone a bit about all that God is doing in and through @llamadoeternomin in Danli and ended with an invitation for people to sponsor kids in Honduras. We came in with a goal of having at least 24 more kids sponsored and we had 26 sponsored! Incredible! There are still so many kids that very much need to be sponsored so please do reach out if you are interested.

Also, pray for Tuesday night as they will be visiting with @somos.siloe church.
Sponsoring a child provides access to education, food, and a brighter future. ❤️‍🩹✨
It’s incredible to share the testimony of what’s happening in Idudi Uganda!

Thanks to every Empowering Education sponsor, Double Hope is providing a home, education, and faith to the children of Idudi. Together, we are transforming lives!

With gratitude to our sponsors happy Valentine’s Day.

Our Mission

Empowering Education International connects families struggling or unable to pay for the costs of schooling with families desiring to help.

We believe in addressing the needs of the WHOLE CHILD, the WHOLE FAMILY and the WHOLE COMMUNITY.

First, we address the financial obstacles preventing the child from attending school by offering a complete scholarship. This pays for a complete uniform, registration costs, school supplies, daily transportation to school and daily lunch money.

In many locations, we provide tutoring classes afterschool to all the children to not only go to school, but experience success.

However, knowing that true change comes only through Christ, we work with the local church to minister to these families and meet not only their physical needs, but also their spiritual and emotional ones as well.
