GROUP PROJECT DONATION GOAL OF $1500 GOES 100% TOWARDS VOLUNTEER MATCH ORGANIZATION AND PROJECT AT 'CAMINITO DE SABIDURIA DAYCARE'- Like many daycares in the Guanacaste province and throughout Costa Rica, this daycare in the town of Santa Cruz serves as a safe place for children to come while their parents work. With families coming from the cattle ranching industry, dairy farms, local restaurants, tourism, and even selling coconuts on the local beaches, this childcare facility helps negate the economic disparity and focus on the preliminary years of education. Caminito de Sabiduria, or Little Path of Wisdom, currently has 50 children enrolled split into two groups; 0-3 years of age, and 3-5 years of age. With only 2 helpers per age group and limited resources and financing for new infrastructure projects, your volunteer time and contributions will be greatly appreciated.

PROJECT PROPOSALS:
- Design and paint educational murals throughout the daycare
- Construct garden beds for the children to learn about nutrition and conservation
- Repair worn out and dilapidated furniture
-Donate activity books and supplies for the children
- Paint the ground areas with fun, interactive games
- Care for the children and provide educational support in the classrooms as needed
