ATEC is happy to announce its first Christmas and Graduation Drive for the students of the indigenous community Shuabb, located in Talamanca, Limón, CR. While collecting information for our upcoming 11th School Supply Drive in this community, we were asked to support the students’ education not only by providing them with school supplies, but also by supplying them with other goods which they need in their daily life. In collaboration with the school staff we set the goal to give each student a raincoat, rainboots, soccer socks and soccer shoes as a Graduation and/or Christmas present in December. In order to guarantee that all students receive the same supplies, the presents will be homogeneous (of the same quality and the same materials) and in accordance with each children’s size, ATEC will buy the clothes at the end of the drive and will bring it to the Shuabb school on the day of graduation.

We are therefore looking for your financial support to provide the 22 students with the following gifts.

Due to their different sizes the prices of the products will range from:

At a workshop hosted by Earth University, ATEC was honored as a leader in the organization and collection of trash and recyclables in Puerto Viejo, for over 25. Today, our office in Puerto Viejo is one of few Recycle collection centers becuase, keeping our town and our beaches clean has always been a top priority. We continue to work with our friends in Puerto Viejo, Cahuita, Cocles, Punta Uva, Manzanillo and the Municipalidad to reduce the amount of trash going to landfills, reuse what can be repurposed, and recycle as much as possible.

As part of supporting communities, since 2006 the project “School Supply Drive” is implemented. It implies the selection of one or more schools in Talamanca with few economic options for the purchase of educational materials, an exhaustive search for donations of school supplies for the students, and finally the supplies are brought to the school and shared in between the students and classes.  By supporting the efforts of young people to learn and with the support of the community it is our intent that both children and families are encouraged to continue the education process.

This year we are trying to help 25 students from 2 different schools in Talamanca. To support our efforts click here to DONATE NOW!!
