ASJ Launches Capital Campaign For New Building

April 21, 2017

We are so excited to announce that we have begun the fundraising process for a new home for ASJ (formerly known as AJS).

We’ve occupied the same cramped quarters for the past 15 years, even as our staff has grown from around 30 to over 130. Our current space hinders our ability to do our work and facilitate collaboration with others. After a substantial time of prayer, deliberation, and consultation with expert advisors, we believe that the time is right to build a new space that more adequately supports the work, partnerships, and influence of ASJ.

You have been an essential part in bringing us to this point, and we invite you to continue your journey with us by visiting the website below. There, you can learn more about o ur vision for the new building, read stories that illustrate our need, and consider a donation to help make our dreams for peace and justice in Honduras a reality.

Thank you in advance for your support of continuing to build hope and grow justice in Honduras!

ASJ Supporting Students’ Learning in Honduras

By Elizabeth Hickel • April 29, 2025

Earlier this month, The Banner published a story written by Our Shared Ministr y by Karina Guevara and Elmer Salinas . The authors showcase the work that ASJ-Honduras is doing to help and support students in Honduras. Karina and Elmer tell the story of Genesis Garcia, an 8-year-old, whose family struggles to find consistent jobs. "Genesis Garcia Baquedano is 8 years old and lives with her older brother, Anderson, and their parents in Honduras. Her parents work hard to support their family. Genesis’s father is a painter who struggles to find consistent work, and her mother is a street vendor who spends long hours away from home." According to Karina and Elmer, although Genesis is a good student, she was struggling with reading, writing, and math. This is where the ASJ-Hondurans' program, Strong Communities , comes to be a blessing. "Through God’s grace, Genesis and her family were able to join the Strong Communities program facilitated by World Renew’s local partner, Association for a More Just Society (ASJ, because the Spanish translation is Asociación para una Sociedad más Justa). Through the program, Genesis attended academic support sessions, where she impressed her tutors with her perseverance and enthusiasm. Now, Genesis’s teachers praise the program for the significant progress Genesis has been making at school." We are blessed to be able to help kids like Genesis and her family to be able to achieve their dreams and goals.
