Join us on an upcoming trip to Costa Rica!
LeGrandMission Regalos de Dios
Home for adolescent mothers and babies
On the slopes of the Poás volcano in the province of Alajuela in Costa Rica, an home called Regalos de Dios is being opened. Working in conjunction with PANI (Patronato Nacional de la Infancia, the child protection services in Costa Rica), LeGrandMission is currently serving impoverished families in the area while we await appoval to be a home for teenage mothers and babies.
The land pictured is our land, approved by local authorities. It is almost 6 acres and is currently home to coffee plants and sugarcane. It has a beautiful creek at the back of the property. Currently we have 2 homes that can house 10 mothers and babies. The 3rd building serves as an administrative building for staff and also has the kitchen and eating area where everyone will eat all their meals. Future plans include additional homes. Each home will have a maximum of 10 teenage mothers and babies.
Weather in San Pedro de Poás is beautiful with warm days and cool nights. The property has a view of the Poás volcano and the valleys below it. San Pedro de Poás is 30 minutes away from Juan Santamaría airport in San Jose.
Construction teams will stay next door at dormitories LeGrandMission started in 2019. This will cut down on transportation costs and costs for room/board. The dormitories are pictured in the middle at the bottom the the photo with the orange roof.
Our initial fundraising goal is $1,235,000. Property: $560,000 Legal Fees (Costa Rica): $1,500 Accounting Fees: $3,500 Initial Buildings Goal $625,000 Van Purchase/Travel Cost: $45,000
We would be honored if you would join us on this journey.
