Volunteers in Sint Maarten can help communities in need by supporting projects local to the area. One such project is the New Start for Children Foundation, a foster home for children ranging from 0 to 18 years of age. Donating supplies to this foundation will help support the children in the program. Voluntourists can donate school supplies, books, educational toys, and art supplies. Tourists can also donate to the Sint Maarten Early Children Development Association (SECDA), a series of independent day-care centers that aim to provide opportunities and education for all children in their care. Visitors hoping to donate supplies to SECDA can bring compute hardware and software, musical instruments, books, general school supplies, and select medical supplies.
