About Us
Amigos Internacionales is a charity whose mission is to provide support and care for children in need. We believe that every child should have access to basic necessities such as food, shelter, education, and water. To ensure this, we have established a global network of projects across Uganda, South Sudan, Guatemala, and other countries around the world.
Our organization has been in operation since 1976 and has provided emergency services to those affected by disasters. As we move forward, we are committed to proactively addressing the needs of children in these areas and beyond.
We strongly believe that no child should have to suffer from poverty-related deprivation due to their circumstances. Our goal is to provide essential resources with an emphasis on sustainability, which will create an environment where children can flourish.
The work of Amigos Internacionales is made possible by our generous donors and partners, as well as the dedication of our volunteers, who tirelessly strive to make a positive difference in the lives of those we serve. We are deeply committed to making sure that every child’s voice is heard and that they receive the care and support they need.
Together, let’s make a positive difference in the world and create a better future for our children. Join us today and be part of something bigger than yourself!
