For the past three years, we, the Corcovado Foundation, have been a source of hope and support for the elderly and underserved families in the Osa Peninsula. Since the onset of the pandemic, our team has been humbly dedicated to delivering essential food packages to those most in need. This past year, amidst the challenges and uncertainties, we distributed 179 packages, providing vital sustenance to the most forgotten members of our community.
The Osa Peninsula, heavily reliant on tourism, faced unprecedented hardships during these trying times. In response, our efforts were refocused, and our resources were marshaled to ensure that the most vulnerable, particularly the elderly, received the desperately required assistance. It has been a journey of humility and solidarity, and we are profoundly grateful for the opportunity to serve our community in this manner.
The impact of our efforts has been profound, offering sustenance and a lifeline of hope and solidarity to those facing the greatest hardships. As the world navigates through these challenging times, the Corcovado Foundation's steadfast support has exemplified the power of compassion and community, serving as a source of strength and resilience for the Osa Peninsula.
Our mission as the Corcovado Foundation is deeply rooted in strengthening protected wild areas, promoting environmental education, sustainable tourism, and community participation through the sustainable use of natural resources in the South Pacific area of Costa Rica. We are committed to continuing our humble efforts to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those we serve, and we are profoundly thankful for the support and opportunity to serve our community.
