SOS Children's Village Tegucigalpa was the first SOS Children's Village in Honduras. It went into operation in 1970 and existed for about 25 years in Tegucigalpa's Colonia Kennedy. Then it was closed down because it did not correspond to the SOS Children's Village standards any more. A new SOS Children's Village was erected in Colonia Las Hadas in Comayaguela in the southern part of Tegucigalpa, at a distance of approximately 1 km from the airport of Toncontín. Its official opening took place in May 1995 in the presence of Helmut Kutin, president of SOS-Kinderdorf International.

SOS Children's Village Tegucigalpa consists of 14 family houses, the village director's house, staff accommodation, a library, a multipurpose hall, a playground and an administration and service area. In the middle of the building site, a recreational area serves as a meeting point for mothers and children. Because of the lack of water in Tegucigalpa, the SOS Children's Village has its own well. The infrastructure of the SOS Children's Village is good; there are banks, pharmacies, hospitals and shops within easy reach.

The children attend primary and secondary schools in the vicinity of the SOS Children's Village. At a certain age, young people move to the SOS Youth Facility in order to prepare for independent life. There are several rented flats in the city of Tegucigalpa, where youths live together under the care of a youth supervisor.
