Currenty, thirteen young men have graduated from high school through the Micah Project's programs. These courageous young men, who seemed destined to live and die on the streets of Tegucigalpa, have begun their college studies. At the same time, we have identified other young boys who desperately need the love and support that the Micah Project offers. Please take a moment to read below how you can continue to support these young men in 2008!
1. Micah House Operational budget: We need $7,500 a month to run our group home, educational project, library, staff salaries
and to meet our administrative needs!
We have twelve boys living in the Micah house in 2008.
Much of this budget is met by individual supporters. We ask you to
prayerfully consider a monthly or quarterly donation to help meet our monthly
budget. 2. Leadership House Operational Budget: We will need approximately $ 3,500 a month to run our Leadership house in 2008. This includes upkeep for the facilities, our leadership educational curriculum, and the funds to support the young men in their day-to-day needs. We plan to have eight young men living in the Leadership house full time in 2008, while those who are studying abroad will spend their vacation months there.

3. Scholarship Fund: We now have thirteen young men in universities
throughout the US, Mexico and Central America. Darwin Pavon, our first
scholarship recipient, graduated from Zamorano University in 2007 as an
agricultural engineer. In
2008, we will need to raise at least $130,000 in order to support these
young men as they continue their college studies. As the young men receive external scholarships, we will roll extra scholarship
donations into a fund with the purpose of creating an endowment. Please click

more about the scholarship fund! 4. Outreach Ministries: The Micah boys and staff will continue our outreach ministries in three areas in 2008: a.) the Villa Linda Miller community; b.) the families of our boys, and c.) the children on the streets and at the city dump. These things include home schooling programs, spiritual outreach, a library, and programs for children and teens. Donations of Spanish books of all genres in good condition are appreciated. We will need approximately $1,500 per month to sustain these important outreach ministries. 5. Missionaries: We are looking for faith-filled people who are willing to serve as missionaries for the Micah Project! In 2005, we are looking for couples to serve as group home parents for both the Micah House and the Leadership House. Additionally, we are looking for missionaries to serve as teachers and to participate in our outreach ministries. Please contact us at micahproject@hotmail.com if you are interested in serving! Please
indicate on your check if your support is for a specific item, such as the Scholarship
fund. It is
our hope that, as you support us, that you will also be blessed by what our Lord
is doing in these boys’ lives and ministries! The Central Presbyterian
Church of St. Louis, Missouri, which supported the Micah Project while it was
still just a dream, continues to flexibly and graciously support us.
One way it aids us greatly is by accepting and recording donations for us and
helping to communicate with supporters. We especially thank Central
Missions Director Randy Mayfield and his assistant Cari
Lowe for their time, energy and love! The Micah Project is a non-profit organization with its
