Costa Ballena’s 5 Days for Good is Back!
Author: Brad Dean
Last year we saw Canada, the USA, and Costa Rica rally together and inspire each other with acts of kindness, charitable donations, and more. Some of the notable efforts included beach and park clean-ups, donations to support youth soccer and day-care centers, ice cream donations, coloring contests, and even free massage treatments for those who could not afford to get the treatment they needed. Selfless acts like these keep the light of this initiative shining brightly and encourage us to keep supporting this initiative that helps so many and inspires goodness worldwide.

We firmly believe that all ships rise with the tide, and we have to use the time, talent, and treasures we have to support everyone we can in whichever way we have to offer. We could all use more good in our lives, and it is the mission of 5 Days for Good to inspire, encourage, and facilitate tangible acts of kindness that support the people in our communities who need it the most. In total, during the three years of running 5 Days for Good, we have collectively seen over 450 days dedicated to helping those in need, and we aren't about to slow down any time soon.
This year's initiative will run from Monday, April 18th, to Friday, May 27th. You can choose any consecutive five-day period that works for you to participate—interested in learning more or joining in on the good?
Visit www.5daysforgood.com or check us out on Facebook and Instagram. Or better yet, contact us directly at info@5daysforgood.com. We would love to hear from you.
