AMIGOS ALUMNI REFERRAL PROGRAM – 2025

Earn discounts or cash payments for referring the next cohort of AMIGOS volunteers!

What

The AMIGOS Alumni Referral Program is exclusively for AMIGOS alumni, or Parents/Guardians of an Alum, to earn program discounts or cash payments for referring the next cohort of AMIGOS volunteers.

Benefits

Referrers will receive one of the following incentives for each successful referral:

$300 discount off the cost of their 2025 AMIGOS Summer or Gap program,

OR

$100 payment

 

How it Works

Step 1: Enroll & Receive Your Referral Code

In order to receive the referral incentives listed above, eligible Alumni and/or eligible Alumni Parent/Guardians must complete the Alumni Referral Program Enrollment Form. Once you enroll in the program, we will send you a unique referral code, instructions on how to refer someone, and information on how your referrals will be tracked.

Step 2: Share AMIGOS with Your Friends and Family!

Tell your friends, lead a presentation at your school, or even help your siblings apply! Your referrals will share your referral code on their application so we know who sent them. We’ll be reaching out to offer individual support and our tips & tricks to help you spread the word!

Step 3: Get Updates on Your Referrals

You will receive a monthly email with details on which applicants have listed you as a referrer and the status of your incentives. Questions, confusion, or corrections about individuals you have referred should be sent to [email protected].

Step 4: Earn Your Referral Credit  

In March, we’ll reach out with the final status of your referrals. For each new AMIGOS volunteer you refer, you can choose to receive a $100 payment or $300 discount towards a 2025 Summer/Gap Program!

(p.s. if you refer your sibling, they can use the program discount towards their 2025 program fees!)

 

Rules and Legal

  • You are only eligible to receive the referral incentive if your referral is “successful”. Successful referrals must complete all of the following steps: apply for a 2025 AMIGOS Summer or Gap Program, be accepted to the program, and submit their program deposit.
  • Referrals must be new volunteers to AMIGOS, you cannot refer an AMIGOS alum.
  • Referrals must be for participants of AMIGOS Summer or Gap Programs.  Referrals to the Youth Ambassador program operated by AMIGOS are not eligible for the referral bonuses.
  • Current AMIGOS employees, AMIGOS contractors, Chapter board members, and employees of partner organizations are not eligible to enroll in the Alumni Referral program.
  • A referee must confirm the referral via entering the referral code OR otherwise confirming you as the referral source.
  • If there is lack of clarity on who would receive an incentive (e.g. multiple referrers are listed) AMIGOS will be the sole arbiter of these decisions and all decisions are final.
  • Discounts off 2025 Summer programs can only be applied to referrals made by March 2025. Discounts will be processed in April and May of 2025. Discounts will be applied to the final family program billing statement and cannot be applied to airfare. Discounts may only be applied to the referrer’s program, or someone within the referrer’s household.
  • If a referee drops from the AMIGOS program and AMIGOS grants them a full refund of their deposit (e.g. they are screened out for health reasons), they are not considered a “successful referral” and you would not receive a referral incentive. AMIGOS is the sole arbiter of which referrals are considered successful and these decisions are final.
  • Payments will be processed in May and June of 2025. These payments will be made out to the referrer and mailed directly to the address provided in the Alumni Referral Program Enrollment Form. If you opt to receive a cash payment, you will need to complete a W4 form for AMIGOS to receive your payment.
  • Referrals for students who participate in AMIGOS in connection with an organization we partner with (KIPP, Prep for Prep, College Track, Boys and Girls Club of America, Program partners, Latin American Youth, etc) are not eligible for the referral bonuses.
