Give the Gift of Education this Holiday Season!
Posted by Editor | December 18, 2009 | Categories: Helping Out | Comments Off
Each year, hundreds of kids in Talamanca can’t start the first day of school because they are unable to purchase even the most basic school supplies. Education makes all the difference, these kids need your help.
Join in ATEC’s Fourth Annual Holiday School Supply Drive
You can gift the supplies to the drive (See the list of required school supplies for each student) or you can donate cash for the purchase of supplies to adopt a student on behalf of the person who already has everything. 100% of your gift goes straight to the supply drive, and in return, you get a lovely certificate honoring your generosity.
Either drop off needed materials at ATEC (see attached list of required supplies) or donate cash:
US$1+ buys some pens or a notebook, approx (we get supplies right from our sales man so we get a good deal)
$44.98 buys all of the school supplies for one kid for one year!
$77.56 buys all school supplies for 1 kid for & their school uniform & SHOES!
Any amount is Great!
Follow the progress of the drive on www.greencoast.com and www.ateccr.org
You can make a credit card donation right here:
Paypal donations are tax deductable in the USA through the non-profit 501c3 certification of this association called the Pura Vida Project! (donations on paypal we have to deduct their small fee.)
In Costa Rica:
Donations can be dropped off at ATEC and we’ll get you a factura timbrada (official receipt) or you can make deposits in one of the following bank accounts—HOWEVER Make sure you send us an email so we can make sure your deposit came through and so we can send you your certificate of thanks!
