Re-launch of Suazo Córdova OC June 20, 2013<br />
In order to streamline the OC, it was re-launched with support from a partner<br />
church, the community organization and members of the community.<br />
As a result of the establishment of the OCs, it has been possible to provide other<br />
benefits to the target communities since the centers are an excellent community<br />
platform for other organizations, programs and projects, such as the following:<br />
FUNDEIH-MASECA Alliance<br />
During this period, equipment was delivered and the training process was initiated to<br />
establish 30 microenterprises dedicated to making tortillas with improved ecological<br />
stoves at the Nueva Capital OC in Tegucigalpa, and 20 micro-enterprises at the<br />
Japón OC in Choloma.<br />
There are plans to expand the agreement with the National Foundation for Honduran<br />
Development (FUNDEIH, Spanish acronym) during the next six months, and establish<br />
at least 25 microenterprises in each of the following communities where OCs are<br />
operating:<br />
o Las Pilas and Rio Blanquito in Choloma<br />
o Suazo Córdova, 24 de abril and San Isidro in San Pedro Sula<br />
o Armenia Bonito, Búfalo and San José in La Ceiba<br />
o Estados Unidos in Tegucigalpa.<br />
The Gildan Company<br />
During this period, personnel from Guildan, a major textile-garments company, visited<br />
the Éxitos de Anach OC in Choloma. As a result of the visit, the company has agreed<br />
to construct a multiple-purpose community court, which will be built next to the OC.<br />
Construction of the court will begin in July, and it will be formally presented to the<br />
community at its inauguration in August<br />
