ABOUT CRAA

A student-led organization built around service.

CRAA brings students and supporters together to serve communities in Costa Rica through meaningful projects and cultural connection.

OUR STORY

Started by a student. Continued by students.

CRAA was founded in 2023 by Ashley Hoadley as a student-led effort to create meaningful service opportunities connected to Costa Rica.

After Ashley graduated, student leadership continued with Ashton Hoadley and the next generation of CRAA students.

The organization continues to center student leadership while working with adult supporters, community partners, and people in Costa Rica.

LEADERSHIP

Student officers and members help plan, fundraise, communicate, and lead service activities.

Adult sponsors and supporters help students navigate planning, fundraising, travel, and community partnerships.

Local partners help CRAA understand priorities and direct support where it can be useful.
