IVY M.A.D. stands for Make A Difference. As a brand, we are committed to helping and supporting organizations all over the world and have a goal to fund over One Million dollars in projects in the next 5 years. Both our owners have lived overseas and volunteered for organizations fighting sex trafficking, so the cause is very close to our hearts. When you purchase this adventure, you are not only paying for your way, but we are also taking a portion of the cost of this trip and funding the project that we will be completing. Our goal is to lead short term trips that leave long term sustainable impact! 

About The Project:

About the project: Saving Hearts Together is restoring the lives of children in Costa Rica who have been removed from the sex trade by providing a live-in program that meets their physical, emotional, psychological, and educational needs. Saving Hearts is unique in that it provides the children with a variety of holistic therapies and on-going support after they graduate the program.

We will be helping fund and build a safe-house for this program. It will require a lot of labor of love from us, and as a team we will work together to make a difference to these children. You don’t have to have a specialty skill, we will help organize and lead this team in ways that can use everyone’s abilities to move the project forward. This is the kind of work that we get excited about!

Don't worry, it won't be all work! We know you want adventure, and you’ll get to! We will be in the best places to white water raft, zip line, learn about local culture, and so much more!
