I had an amazing time volunteering at the Construction project with IVHQ and Maximo. The staff at Maximo go above and beyond to make sure your volunteering is going well and that you are comfortable. They are very friendly and knowledgeable about the programs, Costa Rica in general and provide great advice for travel here. I had a 10 out of 10 experience and would recommend them to anyone!
