In March, we installed a library network in 4 schools around the Comayagua area. Now, we’re a little over a month in, and we’re seeing clear signs that these libraries are having a profound impact on learning!

It’s the 1 year anniversary of the library at Esteban Guardiola Elementary School! Read about the incredible ways this school has made their library the beating heart of their educational community.

With a relatively small team, we’re able to make a lot of library magic happen! Here’s your chance to learn more about who is on our team, and how we work together to co-create libraries with our educational communities.

Two more schools are celebrating 1 year of library magic! Learn more about how books have supported a flourishing reading culture at 2 schools in Copan.

Hear all about the incredible ways the library is shaping a culture of reading at José Ángel Ulloa Elementary School. One year after its installation, we hear from the teachers, parents, and students to hear how library magic is shifting learning!

In celebration of 10 years as a nonprofit, focused on creating equitable access to books and joyful learning for kids around Honduras, we’re sharing 10 “throwbacks” to show you where it all started and how much we’ve grown. And, looking forward, may the next ten years be our biggest, most impactful years yet!

U.S. political influence has once again plunged Honduras into uncertainty following a contested 2025 election, reviving a long history of interference that deeply affects Honduran democracy, daily life, and economic stability. Amid unrest and fear, Chispa Project’s team continues showing up for children and schools, holding onto hope that books, stories, and steadfast presence can still help change the story.

We celebrate the incredible ways that literacy takes root in our communities; however, the route to reading is paved with challenges. Read about some of the circumstances we adapt to as we spark reading across Honduras.

We’re often asked where our books come from, and why we choose to purchase new books instead of depending on donations. We do our best to source relevant and engaging books while prioritizing logistical and financial efficiency. Learn more here!

Chispa Project is investing more than ever in high-quality, sustainable programming. From handcrafted bookshelves that support local talent to enhanced training and 2 full years of follow-up coaching visits, each library represents a deep, long-term commitment to students and communities.
