Amigos of Costa Rica with El Colectivo 506
Welcome to our new blog, El Colectivo 506 for Amigos of Costa Rica. This blog is dedicated to Amigos of Costa Rica donors and all of those who have some love in their hearts for Costa Rican communities. We believe that what makes people fall in love with Costa Rica is the opportunity to truly connect with the soul of the country – through its communities and their friendly welcoming vibe, the fresh food they prepare, and the bountiful nature that they steward. Through this blog you’ll receive stories of connection and collaboration, as we explore the ways that Amigos of Costa Rica Affiliate Organizations are making an impact around the country. We’ll also share reflections from those collaborating with nonprofits around Costa Rica, since we’re all in this together.
Un fuerte abrazo,
