Here are four ways that AMIGOS can help you fund your experience:

1) There are scholarships, grants, and more. Apply apply apply! There are grants and scholarships given by generous individuals who believe that young people can make a difference and deserve a chance to do so. All you have to do is apply!
2) Chapter System: a main tenet of the chapter system is to make the trip less expensive. If you are part of a chapter you get the opportunity to participating in group fundraising and a whole network of resources that the chapter has been developing for years.
3) Payment plan. You don’t have to do it all at once. We provide payment plans because we understand that it just might not be possible to pay the entire cost at one time. We want to you to know that if a payment plan option is a better fit for you and your family that we offer it.
4) When you get your materials you will receive a fundraising Packet that has all sorts of additional resources for you including information on how to use a GiveBig fundraising webpage and more!

We understand that it can intimidating to try and figure out how to pay for a trip to a completely different region of the world, but have no fear because we are more than willing to work with you to figure out a solution.
