Join us in celebration of culture, and diversity and help support education, health and existing rainforest preservation efforts adjacent to Corcovado National Park in Costa Rica. Rainforestaid09 on The Osa Peninsula is a “Fun” Raiser and gives us “One Voice “ and the ability to communicate globally about the important role the rainforest plays in controlling the world’s climate, temperature, water and air quality. Through Music, Art and Education, we will show by examples of how we can reduce and manage our waste, educate our children and help existing conservation organizations stop deforestation.
