Kaiser Breitlander Memorial Fund
Give the gift of an equitable and inclusive learning environment
On January 15, 2015 the lives of fellow community members, Sarah and Peter Breitlander were changed forever when they lost their first-born and only son, Kaiser James. Kaiser was a happy little boy who loved to laugh and make others smile. During the darkest days of their grief, family and friends helped Sarah and Pete establish the Kaiser Breitlander Memorial Fund which has since raised over $76,000 to help support a wide variety of essential services for La Paz scholarship students including but not limited to special educational services, occupational therapy, educational psychology, and counseling. These special services are essential to ensuring an equitable and inclusive learning environment for children with less resources at La Paz.
This year’s goal is to raise $20,000 to support the Kaiser Breitlander Memorial Fund at La Paz Community School. La Paz is recognized as a non-profit association in Costa Rica as well as a qualified recipient of World Children’s Project, a 501(c)(3) registered non-profit organization in the United States. As a result, all donations made from both the USA and Costa Rica are tax deductible in their respective countries.
