Just outside of Tegucigalpa, Honduras sits the city’s only trash dump which is filled with kids, some younger than ten, who collect trash for a living. Often these kids will get sucked into this culture and become addicted to drugs and eventually end up on the streets begging.
However, that’s not this story.This story centers around a school right across the street, which thanks to a few dedicated Hondurans, began to educate kids instead of them having to work in the dump. An award winning documentary by JJ Star
