Look at the amazing things we did together!

Querida Comunidad,

UWC Costa Rica is only possible thanks to a community of giving. This is why, in the spirit of joy, excitement and reconnection of our new school year, let us take a moment to celebrate with you a few of the milestones you inspired in our 2021-2022 school year:

We not only reached but surpassed our Impact Fund goal raising more than $400,000 for UWC Costa Rica!
Brought together an intentionally diverse community with 70+ nationalites represented on campus between students and educators and gave 82% of students the scholarship support they needed.
Empowered 11 community action projects across 6 provinces of Costa Rica.
Achieved a 93% IB diploma pass rate in the Class of 2022--where 100% of students who pursued university admission received at least one offer.
Raised $60,000+ for our emergency Ukraine Scholarship Fund to ensure that war did not take away our Ukrainian and Belarussian students' UWC dream.
And of course, we honored and celebrated our 15 Anniversary while getting excited for our ambitious plans for our future.

None of this would be possible without you!

As we start a new school year, we are closing this GlobalGiving project page to open a new one that reflects all the exciting plans lined up for our 2022-2023 school year as we start our journey to place Sustainability at the heart of UWC Costa Rica through our Sustainability Framework and new Strategic Plan.

Con gratitud,
