Project Updates

November 2020

We have completed over half the distance of a long and beautiful coastal trail between the community of Drake Bay and the Punta Rio Claro National Wildlife Refuge. It is the primary hiking trail in Drake Bay that was in desperate need of repair. We are extremely proud of all our volunteers from the Drake Bay area. They are doing an amazing job building bridges over streams, fixing the old path, and cleaning the coast along the way. Moving forward, the association is expected to complete approximately 1,800 hours of community work in exchange of $3,000 worth of donations per month.

Drake Bay - Rio Claro Trail

August 2020

Our foundation formed a partnership with the local tourist guide association in Drake Bay to exchange hours of community work for food and personal care items for their members. The association is expected to complete 1,200 hours of community work in exchange of $2,000 worth of donations per month. This initiative is just starting this month. Some of the community work include cleaning our coastline, building new hiking trails, building metal garbage bins, and more.
