The Kafie family is a prominent business and philanthropic family of Honduras. Members of the family are responsible for founding or operating several of the largest enterprises in the country, in various fields of commerce, and for supporting a variety of charitable ventures.

The family name, "Kafie" in Honduras originates in Honduras,[1] while the Kafie family of Honduras has been recognized as part of the Palestinian diaspora.[2] Their ancestors emigrated to England in the nineteenth century, and family patriarch Chuckri Kafie moved from there to La Unión, El Salvador in 1901.[3] More family members followed, and within the next few decades, the family relocated to Tegucigalpa, Honduras.[3] Beginning in the 1970s a number of descendants of the original Kafie family members moved to the United States.[3]

The most notable branch of the family are descendants of Chuckri Kafie's son Luis Kafie, a textile businessman, and his wife, Elena "Nena" Larach.[4]

Fundación Chito y Nena Kafie

Fundación Chito y Nena Kafie (Foundation Chito and Nena Kafie) is a family charitable organization created by Schucry, Luis and Eduardo Kafie in 2006,[23] named for their parents (using their familiar names).[24] The charity has engaged in over 200 projects aimed at improving the lives of Hondurans, with a focus on community, health, and education.[25]

The Foundation has invested in providing school lunches,[25][26] for example investing 600 thousand lempiras to install a children's dining room in the Juan Ramón Molina school, in the village El Llano of the municipality of Ojojona.[25][26] The Foundation has also engaged in the building or rebuilding of dozens of churches,[27][28] such as the Sagrada Familia Chapel in Amarateca.[28] By December 2016, the Foundation reported having rebuilt 33 churches, and it was announced that the Foundation would be joining with the "Churches of Honduras" Project for continued efforts towards this end.[27] The Foundation also supports the international organization Hogares CREA in helping young people who have been rehabilitated from drug addiction to reintegrate into society.[14] In June 2017, the Foundation entered into a collaboration with the San Felipe General Hospital called "La Cajita de Nena" to donate natal care boxes providing supplies for mothers who give birth there.[24][11]

In terms of environmental protection, the Foundation supported the creation of an artificial coral reef in the Gulf of Fonseca,[29] and sea turtle conservation in the same region.[30][8] The artificial reef, created in partnership with different governmental and private institutions, was initiated by submerging twenty large concrete domes designed to provide a habitat for various marine species native to the Gulf of Fonseca.[29][31] The Foundation donated 250 thousand lempiras towards the cost of this effort, which was also projected to benefit the families of 300 fishermen in the region.[29] In support of the sea turtle conservation project, more than 30 volunteers from the Foundation participate in the annual release of over 40,000 endangered sea turtles hatched from eggs laid in conservation sites in Punta Ratón, Cedeño, Boca del Rio Viejo, El Edén, Punta Condega, and Carretales.[30][8][32]
