Mission Statement
Mission Statement
Mountain Mover's Mission International is a non-Denominational humanitarian non-profit organization which endeavors to
build hope and stability in the lives of impoverished Hondurans by attending to the medical, educational, and physical
needs in Danli and rural Honduras.
Mountain Mover's Mission International also wishes to educate, expand, and infuse experience into its pre-medical,
medical student, and physician volunteers in hopes that the true core behind medicine will be further revealed and remembered
by each volunteer.
Description
Brief History
Mountain Mover's Mission Clinic was founded by Kathy Rubio in 1998, catalyzed by the destructive influence of Hurricane
Mitch on a large part of Honduras, in an effort to accomplish everything described in the mission statement of Mountain
Mover's Mission International. Since then, MMMI has changed along with the needs of Danli and rural Honduras, and the
vision for the mission's future has developed steadily during the course of the staff's work. Consistent throughout the life
of MMMI are the outstretched, open, and willing arms of the mission to the local Hondurans. As long as they need aid
this will never change.

Long Term Goals and Plans
In the near future, the mission has plans to purchase land and build a vocational and education school (primary through
secondary education), a church, and a larger clinic all in Danli. It is possible that these will all be contained within
one multiple level building. The current clinic/residence is being leased, and MMMI eventually plans to purchase a house
to remove the continuous expense of leasing. Also, the mission is always looking for ways to expand its ability to
accommodate and teach medical students in more depth and with greater efficacy. With proper vision and applied ambition, we
believe there is no limit to what can be accomplished in Danli.
