About

Future of Honduran Youth

FOHY (Future of Honduran Youth) is a legally registered nonprofit organization established in Oregon, USA, in 2024. We are committed to encouraging, supporting, and providing resources to empower the next generation of Hondurans to become independent, responsible members of society who can serve future generations.

Our Story

Our foundation was born from the long-term vision and commitment of Santiago Kim, known as *Santiagon Catracho Cristiano Coreano*, inspired by his faith journey. Like Saul becoming Paul after encountering Christ, Santiago embraced a new purpose beyond his original Korean identity. Since his first visit to Honduras in 2012 on a short-term mission trip, Santiago’s life transformed from a life of fun to a life of purpose before the Lord. In 2015, he began supporting middle school students from rural areas like Modello, Guanacaste, and Las Brisas, helping them continue their education in larger cities. From 2019, he committed full-time as a missionary in San Pedro Sula, enabling students to pursue higher education. His ministry has produced college graduates who are socially and spiritually engaged in shaping Honduras. Alongside education, Santiago supported the growth of a local church in Las Brisas and provided educational, financial, and spiritual assistance to families in the Rio Blanco Bordo area of San Pedro Sula, strengthening both community and faith.

Who We Are

In 2024, marking Santiago’s 10th year of ministry, a group of Christians united to establish FOHY Foundation. Their goal: to ensure the sustainability of this mission and prepare to pass leadership to the next generation of Honduran believers.
