Costa Rica Orphanage Project Children at Risk/Orphanages

Poverty, abuse, and alcoholism have left many children in Costa Rica without families, depriving them of the parental love and care they need. Orphanages in Costa Rica are a private, Christian-founded home dedicated to providing children with a loving, caring home until situations within the home can be corrected, they can be adopted by families, or are of an age to be on their own. Volunteers/traveler’s support can help keep these children off the street, and helps provide them with a happy and productive childhood. Volunteers/travelers can benefit by supplying these orphans with much-needed love and companionship as well as a solid foundation to meet their needs and nurture their interests, goals and ultimately make their dreams for a brighter future come to fruition.
