🎡 Carnival for a Cause 2025​

What we raised:
Goal 90%

Carnival for a Cause is more than just a carnival—it’s a grassroots celebration that brings families together while raising critical funds for over a dozen local community organizations in Guanacaste, Costa Rica.

In its first year, this volunteer-driven event exceeded all expectations, welcoming 600+ attendees, and helping 12 community causes raise awareness, build stronger networks, and fund their programs. This year, we’re making it even bigger and better—with new games, a custom-built dunk tank, better prizes for the kids, and vibrant decorations to bring the carnival to life.
