Founded in 2021 by the Costa Rican owned and run travel company Origen Escapes, the Origen Foundation is a way to give back, not just to the environments, individuals and communities that have played a role in the company’s success, but to the planet as a whole.We are striving to provide the rich soil in which the seeds of change can grow, harnessing the power of sustainability and the transformative capabilities of tourism to speed up the creation of a global society that lives in perfect symbiosis with the environment.Over our years of operation, Origen Escapes has been able to forge strong, reciprocal relationships with many aspects of Costa Rica’s nature, land and people. The Foundation is our way of reinvesting, starting at a national level, through the fundings of scholarships and conservation projects across Costa Rica.
