MCC supports the social work of several Anabaptist organizations in Honduras in education, HIV/AIDS prevention, agricultural development and the rehabilitation of gang members.

With Global Family sponsorships from MCC, a Honduran Mennonite women's organization, Women Friends Miles Apart (MAMA), gives scholarships to students from low-income families to help them attend elementary school, secondary school or university. MCC also sponsors public education by MAMA to prevent domestic violence.

MCC supports agricultural development work through Mennonite Christian Service, a Honduran Mennonite organization, and Committee of Social Development, a Honduran Brethren in Christ organization. This work is funded by MCC and Foods Resource Bank.
