Our Mission

Cape CARES is a Honduran nonprofit humanitarian organization. We maintain no religious or political affiliation. We endeavor to deliver high quality community-based care to people living in rural Honduras, including team-centered primary care, medical and dental treatment, preventive care, health education and training for the local communities.

Cape CARES in 2023

Cape CARES is back in Honduras! After a very successful 2022 year and four full clinic weeks, Cape CARES is gearing up for 2023. However, inflation and the rising cost of pharmaceuticals and supplies, is causing strain on our ability to bring care to Honduras. We need your help to ensure that we can; properly restock our clinics with pharmaceuticals and supplies, hire local Hondurans to help with patient flow, and provide culturally conscious medical and dental care free of charge to our patients in Honduras.

By donating to Cape CARES, you will be providing direct funds to ensure the safety of our patients, community, and volunteers as we return to our Honduran clinics.

The Board of Directors at Cape CARES
stands in solidarity against Racism

We support those who are speaking out against the longstanding pattern of systemic racism in the United States resulting in violent deaths of Black People and serious health disparities in Black Communities.
We understand that systemic racism also affects the health of people and communities around the world including Black and Non-Black Honduran people in the communities that we accompany in Honduras.

We commit

  • to act intentionally to disband racist structures and practices,

  • to align with global best practices by following the ideals of collaborative community involvement in Honduras,

  • to actively work to diversify our board and our volunteers, and

  • to continue antiracist education and practices within our organization

“We seemed to have a very high number of young children and families this year. Many families came for well visits and were in absence of major health problems, evidence of a primary pediatric care model.”
