Kids Saving the Rainforest is a non-profit organization based in Quepos, Costa Rica.
We operate a wildlife sanctuary that is home to nearly 50 animals who cannot be released back into the wild, and we offer educational tours to the public of the sanctuary to help people learn about the dangers of human-wildlife interaction, the pet trade, etc, and to teach them how to respect wildlife and to engage in ecologically responsible tourism.
We operate a rescue center that rescues over 100 animals each year, and our primary goal is rehabilitating these animals to be released back into the wild.
We have a veterinary clinic on-site, as well as a wildlife nursery with orphaned babies.
We have a reforestation project, and we also put up wildlife bridges and work with the electric company to minimize wildlife injuries and deaths caused by electrocution.
We host volunteers and interns from all over the world, some for the day, and some who stay on site and live with us from two weeks to over a year.
Please visit our Donation and Adoption page to see how to help in the way that inspires you the most!
Donations to our 501(3)C US non-profit organization are 100% tax deductible.
The animals of the rainforest and future generations thank you!

SPONSOR A SLOTH IN OUR SANCTUARY!
Donate $60 to sponsor one of our Sloths and receive a Sloth plushy as a gift from KSTR.
With your donation we can give a better life and a better chance of release to our resident sloths.
Baby and young sloths are one of the most frequent of animal species brought in to the wildlife clinic.
The current rehab cages are not sufficiently large or natural enough to provide a learning environment that allows a weaned orphaned sloth a chance to grow into a wild sloth before facing the dangers of the wild on their own.
The small rehab cages were designed for short-term residents(those brought in as a result of electrocutions, dog attacks, etc.) not for long-term residents like orphaned sloths.

Would you like to help the wildlife?
Are you coming to visit Costa Rica?
Anything that you purchase & bring from the list helps injured or orphaned wildlife on their road to recovery and release. Bonus points for using Amazon Smile and selecting KSTR as your charitable organization.
The animals would be very grateful!
Unfortunately, many needed items are not available in Costa Rica, and shipping directly here is very complicated and expensive...so we often rely on the generosity of incoming visitors and volunteers to bring us some required supplies.
