Remote villages in Costa Rica have few employment opportunities, often no utilities, and most families do not have cars or modes of transportation to travel to employment, affordable food and services for their families.  Wages pay  $2-$3 an hour and with the influx of ex-pats cost of living is higher than the US. Families struggle to feed their children, schools often cannot afford books and adequate supplies, orphanages struggle to meet the needs of the children and the need for community and youth outreach centers is of high demand due to the increasing rates of youth homelessness.

Center for Awakening youth outreach travels to remote communities in Central America  to bring food, clothing and needed supplies to orphanages, schools, and communities in need.  Register below to donate or volunteer for our annual projects.
