Summary

In this study, the researcher created multiple curricula to support Ecuadorian and Honduran communities in collaboration with Misión Lázaro and Manna Project International. They conducted research into past literature and explored examples of other Hispanic and United States non-profit organizations. Through the experience of this collaboration (observations about the dynamic and management of organizations) a deeper understanding grew surrounding the topics of social enterprise and impact on communities in Honduras and Ecuador. Finally, the project completed three resources to effect better financial independence, understanding of food health and safety, and prevention of sexual assault. The presentation and defense following the completion of class and project will include a Spanish introduction and English clarification along with the majority of the elaboration about the study in order to better relate the results and implications.

Keywords: non-profit organizations, social enterprises, entrepreneurship, sexual assault, food health, food safety, volunteering, relational intervention
