Help Me Make a Difference in Costa Rica!

Hi! I'm Iza, a 14-year-old student and in 2027, I’ll be spending my summer holiday in Costa Rica. This is a chance for an unforgettable experience that combines adventure, learning, and giving back. The total cost of the trip is £5,520 and I am hoping to raise as much as I can myself to show commitment to this amazing opportunity.

This is not a holiday but a chance to take part in meaningful community work, explore one of the most biodiverse countries on Earth, and grow in ways I never imagined. As I will be there for a month, I am hoping to make a real impact by helping local communities, protecting wildlife and learning about sustainable living. This trip will be life-changing! But I need your help to get there!

What I’m Doing to Raise Funds

To make this dream a reality, I’m working hard to raise the money myself through fun and creative activities:

Bake Sales – Homemade treats baked with love and sold at local events and school fairs.

Swimming & walking challenges to show my commitment and raise sponsorship.

Handmade Personalised Items – From custom badges to decorated tote bags, and hand made jewellery, I’ll be crafting unique gifts myself

car boot sales to include 2nd hand books, clothes and many more

& offering my help with housework, car washes or dog walking

Every pound raised brings me closer to Costa Rica and the opportunity to make a real impact.

Why This Trip Matters

Costa Rica is known for its incredible wildlife, gorgeous rainforests, and strong commitment to conservation.

During my time there, I’ll be:

This experience will help me grow as a person, build confidence, and inspire me to keep making a difference long after I return.
