A few words
About Siempre Amigos
History
Our initiative began in 2012 and since we have organized to paint and improve more than 75 houses in the towns of Monteverde, Tempate, Brasilito, Huacas and Potrero, and at least 5 schools in the area with painting, establishing gardens, as well as English classes to small children through activities and interactions with volunteers.
The Siempre Amigos team was originally supported by two organizations in the Flamingo area, Centro Panamericano de Idiomas (CPI) and Casas del Toro Hotel. Two brothers and a close friend (Diego & Nicholas Najarro and Martin Campos) proposed to the aforementioned companies the idea of channeling the forces and energies of the many young people who came to study Spanish to include helping families in the Santa Cruz area in an organized and professional way. The idea was proposed that with a conservative amount of funds and appropriate guidance in organizing the visiting youth —without experience in manual labor — it was possible to direct their desire and dedication to helping the marginalized in Costa Rica, while at the same time achieving a unique and enriching experience — better understanding the Costa Rican culture from a unique perspective over that of an ordinary tourist visit.
