Our buddy Patrick, from the mission in Bangalore, wrote a blog post about the mission to Costa Rica in September 2015.
FSP partnered up with local nonprofit organization Culture, Education and Psychology for Infants and Adolescents (CEPIA). They focus on the communities of Guanacaste and at the time were supporting 16 different families. However, over 120 families in the area are in need of help.
Our goal is to raise enough money to add 17 different families to the program. $50 is enough to clothe, feed, and educate an entire family for a month, or $600 for a year. Downtown eCommerce is generously kicking off the drive by pledging 30% of their monthly fees to the fund. Thanks Downtown eCommerce and Patrick for kickstarting this mission!

Thanks guys for your continued support, FSP and CEPIA wish you a happy holidays!
