Costa Rica has a long history of service, environmental stewardship and social conscience. This history is reflected in the abundance of volunteer programs in the country. Volunteer opportunities include: teaching English, environmental conservation, National Park maintenance, working with school groups and orphanages, sustainable farming, sea turtle conservation, and many more.
Volunteering in Costa Rica is a fulfilling activity, which can lead to personal growth from an emotional, intellectual, and social standpoint. Working on a volunteer project allows the opportunity to share your knowledge and ideas with Costa Ricans and other volunteers from all over the world, while, at the same time, learning from them. Volunteer work helps Costa Rica solve social, economic and environmental issues in the country. For example, volunteers who work in the National Parks help to offset budget shortages in the Ministry of Environment and take care of a number of jobs which otherwise could not be completed.
