Poverty in Costa Rica

Hi, my name is Jessie Freiberg and I am raising money to buy supplies for carrying out my action plan.

Despite its beautiful landscape, about 30% of the population in Costa Rica is said to be living in poverty, ultimately creating the problem of homes with inadequate income for household needs. Through testing my prototypes on my peers, I found that there was a huge lack of education on this issue. So, for my solution, I plan to pair up with a Spanish class in the middle school and create a lesson plan to educate the kids on this issue. The second part of the lesson will involve making bracelets that we can sell to raise funds for Costa Rican Families.
