The government of Costa Rica is strongly committed to supporting projects for social housing, backing all donations to projects of this kind with a cast iron guarantee.
The Global Social Housing model addresses the need for homes for some of the more than 40,000 families facing homelessness in Costa Rica, and will vastly reduce costs of providing social assistance for Costa Rica’s government.
Mr Mirman said: “Ms Campos’ help has been invaluable in pushing forward the project. Global Social Housing are thrilled to have the Costa Rica Government’s support in achieving their charitable goals within the country.”
