The vision of Corozal Belize Ministries is to change the lives of children, families and a nation through education.

Belize is an independent country with approximately 400,000 residents.
It is about 180 miles long (north to south) and 70 miles wide.
It is divided into five states; the northern most, and most impoverished, is Corozal with families earning on average less than $10,000 per year – that is only $5,000 USD!.
English is the primary language in the country and is the language taught in schools. Communication with American visitors is seldom difficult.
It’s a great place for churches to send mission groups, even youth-oriented trips.

The Belizean dollar is pegged to the U.S. dollar with $2 BZD = $1 USD. Most places accept either currency, but change is always provided in Belizean currency.
Credit cards are generally accepted, and ATMs can be found in cities.

Philip Goldson International Airport is located in Belize City. Several carriers have daily flights from the U.S. to Belize.
The airport is a 1 hour 45-minute drive from Corozal Town, which is in the far north of the country and 25 minutes south of the border with Mexico.
Several major car rental companies (Hertz, Avis, etc.) are located at the airport. Air taxis and ground transport can be hired. U.S. issued licenses are accepted.
Local travel and scheduling are supported by Corozal Belize Ministries’ partners living in Corozal or nearby villages.

American-style hotels are located at the southern end of Corozal just minutes from the city. It is an easy walk into town.
There are several hotels (Best Western, Hilton, Grand Hotel) a short distance from the airport if an early flight is scheduled.
Depending on season, the hotels in Corozal typically range in price from $65-100/night (USD).
