2023 Annual Impact Report

October 19, 2023

After closing our fiscal year (August 2022-July 2023), we're reflecting on our collective impact. Join us in looking back on a year of working for peace and justice in Honduras, and inspiring communities across the world to do the same. 


New Message from Our Executive Director

Jill Stoltzfus


Dear friend,

This year we celebrated 25 years of impact in creating a more just society in Honduras. Reflecting on those 25 years we see God’s faithfulness and the tangible impact of our work in the lives of Hondurans who live in the most vulnerable conditions. This year we celebrate significantly more class days in Honduran public schools, more medicines available in public hospitals and clinics throughout Honduras, and improving relationships with government authorities. We know that these changes in systems affect the lives of millions of Hondurans, and we are proud of the impact we’re having.


We are also thankful for a year of joining together in person with many of you. Together, we brought our deep knowledge of Honduras’ context to DC to advocate for change; we hosted guests in Honduras so they can experience the work firsthand; and we brought the leaders of ASJ-US, ASJ-Canada, and ASJ-Honduras together in Honduras to reaffirm our partnership and celebrate our shared commitment to doing justice together. As I conclude my time as ASJ-US Executive Director I have a great sense of hope and excitement for the future of ASJ. Transitions and big anniversaries inevitably lead to reflection. When I look back, I am struck by all the ways I have seen God’s hand at work in Honduras and through all of you and I am confident that He will remain faithful walking with ASJ in this great work of creating a more just society.


Blessings,


Jill Stoltzfus

ASJ-US Executive Director


¡Bendiciones!

By Brian ASJ December 10, 2025
Hondurans cast their ballots during the November 30, 2025, general election, which saw historic voter turnout and a peaceful process supported by more than 12,000 national and international election observers working to safeguard transparency.

ASJ-Canada and ASJ-US Congratulate the Honduran People,  Call for Full and Transparent Results As sister organizations committed to justice, peace and hope in Honduras, ASJ-Canada and ASJ-US extend our deepest congratulations to the people of Honduras on the peaceful conduct of their national elections on November 30, 2025. With the initial tally showing an extraordinarily close vote, we call on election authorities to do what is necessary to ensure a transparent count of the remaining ballots in order to guarantee public trust in the final outcome. We commend the Honduran voters for their dedication to democratic participation and their commitment to shaping the future of their country through civic engagement. We also recognize the efforts of electoral authorities, civil society organizations, the international community and the thousands of volunteer observers who worked to ensure a transparent, orderly, and secure process. We are especially proud of our sister organization, ASJ-Honduras, for their unwavering commitment to democracy demonstrated through their electoral observation efforts, their analysis activities, and their consistent call for a fair and orderly process. Now that such a process has been achieved, the work turns to counting the votes with accuracy and transparency. The results remain close, increasing the possibility of a contested result. We support the work of the election officials at the National Electoral Council to give Hondurans confidence in the final results by conducting their count with rigor and transparency. We remain hopeful that the spirit of peaceful participation in the democratic process embraced by the electorate will carry forward into the post-election period to come. We look forward to continued collaboration with ASJ-Honduras as we all work together toward a just and hopeful future for all Hondurans.
