Inspiring Volunteer Program for Teens and College Students

AMIGOS provides volunteers ages 13 to 22 the safest, most authentic service and immersion experience in Latin America. Living and working in a new country gives young people the chance to improve their Spanish, make an impact, gain confidence, and build leadership skills. Offering a Chapter program for teens ages 16 - 18, a Gap year program for older youth, and a “Discover Amigos” option for younger teens, AMIGOS programs allow volunteers a unique way to see the world, and experience a new way of living and interacting with others, while being supported by an unsurpassed health and safety system.

About AMIGOS Founded in 1965, AMIGOS volunteers get the opportunity to explore a new country, learn/improve Spanish, bond with their host family, and make a positive impact by working on a community service project side-by-side with local peers and community partners. Our relationships with local and international organizations — built over 54 years — enable authentic engagements in communities across the region. These experiences prepare young people for their future, develop leadership skills, and build confidence. These are skills that will set them apart in college, throughout their careers, and in life.
