“I continue to be amazed by the profound feeling of "family" there is in AMIGOS. It is unique and precious. I will be eternally grateful for all that AMIGOS has given my daughter, so much more than I could have given her as a parent. She is a "richer" person today because of AMIGOS.” –Kathy Rowland, Parent of a Volunteer |
