Help a child’s dreams come true and
discover your own Dreams!

Give generously for a chance to vacation at the beautiful Dreams Las Mareas in Costa Rica, the eco-tourism capital of Central America.

In the spirit of the holidays, we’ve once again partnered with SOS Children’s Villages to support access to education for children living in the village of Los Mina, located outside Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic.

SOS Children's Villages provides safe family homes for over 75,000 children that have been orphaned or abandoned in over 550 villages in 134 countries. Each SOS family is led by a locally hired and extensively trained SOS mother who provides basic needs like food, health and shelter for five to ten children. These women provide more than a place to live; they provide a loving family and a home.

While primary education in the Dominican Republic is a requirement, for many, the cost of school uniforms and supplies are unaffordable. Oftentimes, having a child in school eliminates another set of hands that could be bringing in money for the family. Our contribution will help cover the cost of school fees, uniforms, supplies, books, and extra tutoring for 100 children in the village.HOW YOU CAN HELP

We want to give back to a community that we’ve fallen in love with through our travels, and have partnered with SOS Children’s Villages and their efforts in the Dominican Republic to do so. When you donate to SOS, you’ll truly be making a difference in the life of a child in need.

A donation of $25 to SOS Children's Villages will qualify you for a chance to win a 7 night all-inclusive vacation for 2 at Dreams Las Mareas in Costa Rica, including round-trip airfare from a major Canadian gateway! A $50 donation gives you 3 entries, and a $100 donation gives you 5 entries. The draw closes December 31, 2017.
