NEW PROJECT AT A DAYCARE & NUTRITION CENTER FOR CHILDREN!
It's official! Our new project is up and running at the Daycare and Nutrional Center in Guanacaste - http://tropicaladventures. com/projects_daycare.php?p =daycare. It's a wonderful place where children from this underprivileged area go to ensure they get a good meal for the day as well as lots of interactive play and learning - much of it being health-related. There is a very lovely headteacher, cook and teacher there who run the center together. Volunteers are warmly welcomed by children and staff alike.

It’s Christmas time already?
As crazy as it sounds, we’re already preparing for our Tropical Adventures’ Christmas Projects. This is happening for two reasons: For starters, we have a big demand on people interested in participating in the big Christmas parties that we provide for our communities, and second, because it’s time-consuming organizing these events. We really need to start now to have everything in order by December.
Although it is a lot of work for such a small foundation such as Tropical Adventures, last year we created four big beautiful events. Click here to read all about them - http://www.tropicaladventu res.com/projects_xmas.php? p=xmas.
This year, it is our decision to continue with this legacy of beautiful work. We’re planning on hosting five big Christmas parties. This is how we want to spend our holidays, bringing joy where is needed and doing something great for these communities. They deserve it. If you are a past volunteer, and you’re reading this, you know what we’re talking about.
There are no words to describe how wonderful it is to celebrate with these fantastic and loving people. If you feel you are called to share your time with us and others this holiday season, know we’d love to have you join us!
Happy Holidays in advanced to all of you!

Tropical Adventures is a non-profit organisation, however, some people still ask us why they need to pay to volunteer.
