• Why are we raising funds ?

  To support Chris in his recovery and keep the amazing work of the Living Library going on.

  As some of you may know, our dear friend Chris had a bad accident last week and unfortunately broke his knee. He’s fortunately now back home recovering with the help of his close people and community, but facing a hefty medical bill.

  We’re reaching out to our wonderful broader community to come together and help Chris during this challenging time. Every little bit counts and will make a big difference in easing his financial burden.

  To show our gratitude and bring everyone together, we’re planning to host a Pizza Charity Night once Chris gets better! It will be a great opportunity to support him, enjoy some delicious pizza, and celebrate the strength of our amazing community. We might be organizing a Tombola with a lot of amazing prizes. If you live in Costa Rica, Sinpe informations are provided below for donations with no fees for us.

  Thank you for your kindness and support. Let’s rally around Chris and help him get back on his feet!
