AmeriSpan offers Volunteer & Internship placements in Costa Rica

COSTA RICA is known as the Switzerland of Central America, has an abundance of natural beauty and is populated by a friendly, well-educated people. This small country is a paradise for nature lovers with national parks, jungles, volcanoes, beaches and more water per square mile than any other country in the world, excluding New Zealand.

Costa Rica is one of the world’s most popular places for volunteering. The projects in the National Parks are highly recommended. You can collect turtle’s eggs on the Pacific Coast, do trail maintenance in the Cloud Forest or guide tourists through an orchid garden. But there is much more! We also have projects in Eco-farms, a Butterfly Garden and a Bird Protection program. If you’d prefer to work in Community Service, you can assist in a remote Educational Outreach, work as a teacher’s assistant in Heredia, or give much needed company to the elderly. Some projects are located in rural areas, but many are situated in and around Heredia which allows you to keep up with your social life. Heredia is a university town, very vibrant and active, with an abundance of cafes, restaurants, bars and venues with art and live music. For those looking for an internship, we offer many options in Costa Rican businesses in the Central Valley area.
