Campaign Story
Why this campaign?
This project has come about thanks to many committed people who want to promote and expand Waldorf education in Costa Rica. Waldorf is an educational method responds to children's need and thirst for learning in a way that enriches the most admirable human qualities for the betterment of society.
Who are we?
We are a community of teachers who began our training four years ago under the tutelage of Svenja Büntjen, a German teacher, who has many years of experience with Waldorf education in Germany and internationally. Prior to concluding our teacher training, we held several presentations and workshops open to the public in order to share knowledge about this educational method. Some of the topics covered in these events include: the origin of Waldorf pedagogy, eurythmy, watercolors, drawing, singing, and more. Encouraged by the interest of many families and motivated to take this effort a step further, we created the Association to Promote Waldorf Education in Costa Rica, which is a non-profit organization and is the legal foundation for our work.
How will the funds be used?
We are well on the way to accomplishing our first goal of opening a preschool/kindergarten as we have found an ideal building for this endeavor. In order to open our doors and accept girls and boys for the next school year, we are asking you to help us raise money for building the furniture and purchasing the educational materials appropriate for this pedagogy. We know that with your support we can reach our goal! The children, families and teachers of Costa Rica are infinitely grateful for your contribution.
Waldorf education is a light that opens the way for the development of a student-centered education, it is a legacy for humanity.

¿Por qué esta campaña?
Este proyecto surge del compromiso de muchas personas que desean promover y expandir la pedagogía Waldorf en Costa Rica. El método educativo Waldorf viene a responder a las necesidades y a la sed de aprendizaje de la población infantil y adolescente y buscando enriquecer las características y capacidades más admiras del ser humano que enaltecen a la sociedad.
¿Quiénes somos?
Nosotros somos una comunidad de maestras que inició su formación hace 4 años bajo la tutela de la maestra alemana Svenja Büntjen ella cuenta con amplia experiencia en su país natal y en otros países del mundo. Antes de concluir nuestra formación desarrollamos charlas y talleres para dar a conocer la pedagogía, las temáticas compartidas han introducido al público desde los orígenes de la pedagogía Waldorf hasta el desarrollo de talleres de euritmia, acuarelas, dibujos de formas, canto y otros, este esfuerzo floreció en el interés de las familias y motivados por esto creamos la Asociación para la Promoción de la Pedagogía Waldorf en Costa Rica, la cual es una Asociación sin fines de lucro y es la base legal desde donde estamos trabajando.
¿Cómo vamos a utilizar los fondos?
Nuestro primera meta en este momento se está materializando y hemos encontrado un lugar adecuado para el jardín de infancia, sin embargo, solicitamos la ayuda de todos para poder preparar el lugar y recibir a los niños y las niñas el próximo año; necesitamos recaudar fondos para la construcción del mobiliario y los materiales didácticos al estilo de la pedagogía, sabemos que con su apoyo podemos lograrlo. La niñez, las familias y los maestros de Costa Rica se los agradecemos profundamente.
La Educación Waldorf es una luz que abre un camino para el desarrollo de una educación centrada en sus estudiantes, es un legado para la humanidad.
