Welcome to Casa Congo’s fundraising page!

Our vision is to empower the community of El Astillero to operate our programs autonomously and gradually transition from a non-profit organization to a network of community run social businesses. 

Since its inception, Casa Congo has made its way through 3 hurricanes, a period of political turmoil in Nicaragua and covid-19, which isolated El Astillero from the rest of the world. These adversities have only made Casa Congo stronger and more connected to local communities as we scale our impact and vision for sustainable development.

Casa Congo is now a resilient destination and we need your help to keep building community capacity.
