Volunteer in Costa Rica with CCS and experience a uniquely vibrant culture, make new friends, and work side-by-side with local people, all while enjoying stunning beaches and lush rainforests. In 1948, Costa Rica abolished its military to work toward social improvement, a decision that made the country a progressive pillar of stability in Central America. CCS has been working in Costa Rica for over eight years, building strong partnerships and supporting over 3,000 volunteers to work on dozens of sustainable community initiatives.
