FundaVida: Bringing Hope to at-risk Children in Costa Rica
FundaVida's mission is to bring life-giving hope to children and families in at-risk areas of Costa Rica trapped in the destructive cycle of poverty. Without intervention, poverty will continue to destroy generation after generation. FundaVida effectively breaks the cycle of poverty by offering life changing hope, instilling purpose, and inspiring freedom. They successfully do so through providing resources like interactive computer centers, educational support programs, bilingual training, youth clubs, and counseling to at-risk communities. With so many different programs and opportunities there is a place for everyone to call home at FundaVida.
Sister Schools: Empowering US Students to Help Children in Africa
The Sister Schools program opens the eyes of elementary students in the US to the needs of children in Uganda. Students are able to make a difference by donating educational supplies or personal items which are distributed to children in schools and orphanages in Uganda. Sisters Schools staff then return to the US schools and present pictures and videos to the students showing first hand how their generosity made a life changing impact.
Ecofiltro: Safe, Affordable Drinking Water for Guatemala
Most coffee growers in Guatemala lack access to clean, safe drinking water. Water from local sources must be boiled which consumes valuable natural resources and is commonly a health hazard within the home. Their only other option is to purchase expensive bottled water. Ecofiltro manufactures a ceramic water filter that is a more sustainable and affordable alternative. Our Create Good Foundation is funding the placement of these water filters in rural schools within coffee growing areas. All of these water filters not only help with the health of these families but they will also save them time and resources; no more boiling water!
