Partnering with the Costa Foundation
Building schools in Central America
with The Costa Foundation
Since 2015, we have been working with the Costa Foundation to help coffee-growing communities thrive through education.
By constructing school buildings and water and sanitation facilities, and developing skills of children, parents and teachers, we are increasing the quality of education and more students are staying in school.
Having completed our project in Chinacla, Honduras, we are now developing infrastrature in Madriz, Nicaragua, and San Pedro Carcha, Guatemala. Over 3,000 children will benefit from increased access to safe, quality education.
Honduras project highlights
502 childrenaged 12-15 now have access to secondary education
50% of studentsattending schools are girls
900 parents and members of the local authorities are now engaged to improve education
Providing good quality education
"Our partnership with Plan International enables us to reach the most disadvantaged children, especially girls, and provide them with a safe and good-quality education so they can get a better chance in life."
