AMIGOS Voices

“I think I speak for nearly all Volunteers by saying that “doing AMIGOS” is just another way to say that we discover new homes and new families. To be accepted in another part of the world, and to speak the common language of community, is perhaps one of the greatest blessings that anyone could wish for oneself.”

–Veteran Volunteer
