We normally do not charge any fees to residents of Costa Rica, but we ask that you cover your own expenses (i.e., travel to project locations, lodging, food, etc.). We are often to get incredible discounts for you, so it does not have to be expensive for you to participate with us.

February 16, 2007Presenting “My Costa Rican Experience” by Robert Lamagno
Mission Statement:
I/we want to help preserve the culture and language of the Bribri and Costa Ricans. We want to empower them with the knowledge to protect their land and the rain forests of Costa Rica. These forests benefit the entire world by providing oxygen and water and therefore life to us all.
