Project 541

Project 541 is a nonprofit organization founded to support and empower girls and women of La Moskitia, Honduras. Join us!

The ultimate goal is to provide them access to quality education and assist them in reaching long term goals. Project 541 was established by Kayla Austin in 2013 as an organization with a mission to empower girls and women in La Moskitia, Honduras. With one of the highest poverty rates in Central America, the need in La Moskitia is tremendous. The ultimate goal of Project 541 is to build a home fo

r these girls to grow up in, provide them access to a quality education, and assist them in reaching long term goals. Project 541 will provide opportunities for girls in the area to dream BIG and achieve unprecedented success. We want long term change, long term hope, and long term sustainable life solutions.

Brenda was lucky enough to have a chance to fly down and spend some time with Kayla and all the kids. Everyone got to enjoy good food, swimming, movies and time together.

Happy 13th to our Annie girl! Annie has grown up so much over the past year. She has a heart of gold and loves to chat in the kitchen while meals are being made. She is our resident movie buff, music connoisseur, and always keeps life interesting with her sense of humor. We love you, Annie! Happy birthday!

The 541 house enjoyed a day at the pool on Saturday. The slide was a special treat. Our trip was the culmination of a week off for Semana Santa. Now it’s Monday and it’s back to work and school.

A very special birthday today for our miracle boy. A couple months ago we were holding our breath and praying for just one more day. Today we listened to music, ate yummy food, played with Legos, and celebrated this guy’s second chance at life. Happy birthday, buddy. We love you more than you’ll ever know! ❤️

She did it! 🎓We are so incredibly proud of Beticia for graduating from nursing school! Lots of long nights, early mornings, exams, and endless dedication have led to this amazing moment!

Now she begins the next chapter with one year of obligatory social service as a nurse in a public hospital here in Tegucigalpa.

Your journey is just getting started, and we couldn’t be prouder. Congratulations, Nurse Beticia! 🫶🏻✨

This school year looks a little different for us. We’re a bit spread out!

Cheslor, Mikaila, and Nani are continuing at the same school, now in 8th and 4th grades.

Caterin has started 8th grade at a new school this year, one that offers more academic challenges and opportunities to help her keep pushing herself and reaching her full potential. We’re so proud of her for stepping into something new.

And Annie is at another school where she has the amazing opportunity to complete 5th and 6th grade in just one year, helping her get back on track academically. We’re so excited to see her confidence grow as she moves forward.

Different schools, different paths… but all moving forward, learning, and growing. So proud of each of them!

Estevan is still doing great at home! We’re working on helping him gain some weight, which has been a bit of a challenge with the G-tube, but we’re taking it day by day. We’re also still sorting through some intestinal issues. He started a new antibiotic this week, so we’re hopeful that brings some improvement. Thankfully, we’ve settled into a pretty good routine at home. He absolutely loves watching music videos on the TV and spending time relaxing in the recliner. Every morning we wake up grateful to have him home with us, surrounded by love, comfort, and familiarity. None of it is easy, but having him here makes everything worth it.
