Going Coastal Adventures
Pack for a Purpose does not condone visiting orphanages, as this can often lead to negative impacts on children. The accommodation or tour company working with the orphanage will deliver the supplies in a coordinated and respectful way so that the children can benefit from them. Your generosity is not diminished because you do not interact with the children.

Project Description
St Margaret Mary R.C Primary School in Belize currently has over 395 students of which 150 come from impoverished homes. The increasing cost of basic goods in Belize and the low income in many households has put a strain on the feeding program reducing its participants to only 60 students, impacting the educational and economic development of the children in the community.
