Guancaste National Park

The Guanacaste Conservation Area (GCA)
in northwestern Costa Rica stretches from 12 miles out into the Pacific, across the dry forested coastal plain, to the cloud forest on the tops of three volcanos, and down into the Atlantic rainforest. It contains as many species as do all of the continental United States and Canada, and contains ecosystems that range from northwestern Mexico to Bolivia — rougly 2.4% of the world's terrestrial biodiversity.

Your contribution will be used to purchase and protect rainforest that will save the critical forests and threatened ecosystems of the GCA by increasing their size, preserving the place that the dry forest species go to survive the dry season, and allowing them refuge from global warming.
