	This placement would suit... All Costa Rica, in the heart of Central America, is a country of contrasts and offers a mixture of indigenous and more westerised cultures. With strings of volcanoes, tropical rainforests, magnificent waterfall and beautiful sandy beaches, Costa Rica is an environmental wonderland.  We have numerous Care and Community placements in which volunteers participate. As a volunteer your role is to offer the much needed love and support to many underprivileged children. You will work alongside local staff in either an orphanage or care centre. The work can be challenging, however it is extremely rewarding. After your placement you can take time out to travel and explore the country. Our users say...
