Costa Rica Makes Me Happy has had a transformative year, making significant strides in environmental sustainability and community support. 🙏🏼

Here are some key highlights:

Plastic Waste to RESIN8 ♻️ In partnership with Pedregal, we’ve successfully converted heaps of plastic waste into RESIN8, used for creating ECO blocks and other sustainable construction materials.

Green Homes Program: Our ECO blocks have been instrumental in building homes for families in need, combining eco-friendliness with social responsibility.

Educational Initiatives: Collaborating with local schools, we’ve educated students about the perils of single-use plastics, planting seeds for a more sustainable future.

The Bag That Builds: This innovative program, in collaboration with CRDC Global, has linked recycling efforts to real-world impact, showcasing how recycled materials can be used in practical and life-changing ways.

Thanks to everyone involved, we’re not just cleaning the environment but also building a legacy of sustainability and hope. Here’s to continuing our impactful work! 🌎

Amazing work  ♻️🌊 thank you!

As we wrap up the year, it’s time to celebrate the school that excelled in our environmental mission. These 150 remarkable elementary students went beyond recycling their home waste; they became neighborhood champions in collecting stray plastics.

Their efforts inspired the entire community to support our young environmentalists, showcasing the strength of unity in protecting our planet. This initiative is a shining example of generational change and the power of collective action.

This celebration is not just about acknowledging their dedication; it’s a reminder that with the right infrastructure and a ‘Keep it simple, stupid’ approach, making a positive impact on our planet is within everyone’s reach.

We applaud these young heroes and their supportive community. Together, we’re building a greener future, one ECO Block at a time.

At Costa Rica Makes Me Happy, we believe that every effort counts in our mission to clean and protect our beautiful land. 🌊

Sure, it may seem like a drop in the ocean, but every plastic bottle we recycle and every piece of trash we remove from the shoreline makes a significant difference. Our commitment goes beyond just cleaning beaches; it extends to building sustainable homes for the local community.
