| EDUCATIONAL OUTREACH PROGRAM |
| As part of AdvenTours PUERTO RICO corporate social responsibility in 2002 we founded APIE, the Puerto Rican Association of Interpretation and Education, Inc. APIE is a non-profit organization that offers training and continuing education for tour guides, plus a series of activities for the general public, focusing on children, students, and educators (Proyecto Mucarito). In 2014 we created an Annual Fund to promote scientific research on birds, $1 of every tour we offer is added to this fund. |
