Governor Dino Silvestri

COVID-19 Call To Action

Dino Silvestri, Governor of the Bay Islands,  has issued a call for assistance to the people of the Bay Islands of Honduras. 

 

"Tourism is the primary industry throughout the Bay Islands of Honduras, and it has been gravely affected by the current Covid19 pandemic. Many individuals and families rely on this industry to put a roof over their head, food on the table, provide healthcare and more. The unemployment numbers are now staggering as a result of the pandemic and we need your support, to help us, help our people through these tough times."

 

Through our Roatan based partner, Little Friends Foundation, the Make It Count Foundation, Inc will coordinate the purchase and shipping of requested items as fast as possible.

    Who are we and what have we done

    • Roatan

      In 2006, Doug & Kaylene Walz and their daughter Blair, went to Roatan, Honduras in the Bay Islands to help build a medical clinic in Pandy Town, the poorest section of the island.

       

      What was initially intended as a one time trip ended up turning into a life-altering experience. They couldn’t just go home and pretend what they saw didn’t exist. They knew more help was needed so they went home and founded the Make It Count Foundation.

       

      Since then, the Make It Count Foundation has helped build another medical clinic in French Harbour, Roatan, as well as taken volunteers back for needed improvements. 

      Make It Count is a Florida non-profit, 501(c)(3)  Federal Tax ID#: 20-5367324.

    • Tanzania

      In 2008 and we partnered on the initiative of Small Steps For Compassion. This is the combined effort of loving and passionate people, eager to equip young people in the Mt. Meru region of Tanzania and make a lasting impact in our world.

       

      They provide a loving home for 25 girls and a continually evolving school is providing quality education to almost 300 students. Teachers, house-moms, ground-staff, kids and Small Steps’ volunteers offer their unique gifts to transform the lives and community around them.

       

      They are now a self-sustaining foundation.

    • Florida

      Our work in Florida has been more individual based.  Make It Count has helped with disaster relief, food pantry supplies, medical, funeral and educational needs.

    "I think God sometimes uses the completely inexplicable events in our lives to point us towards Him. We get to decide each time whether we lean in towards what is unfolding and say, 'Yes' or back away". -Bob Goff, Love Does

    Continued Support


    If you, your family or corporation would like to know more about how you can partner with us.  Please let us know who you are and we will be in contact soon.
