Donations to Olive Tree are tax deductible and are needed to help us pay for medical and dental care and also to send worthy Nicaraguan young people to university. In addition, each person who travels with us to Nicaragua is asked to donate $500. They would appreciate help with this payment, and you can designate who your donation will help if you like.
