Support AMIGOS
Your gift directly supports life-changing experiences for teens.
Your Investment Matters
Your support has a lifetime of impact.
AMIGOS relies on the support of our donor community to drive our programs forward. Annual Fund contributions support infrastructure investments that are not covered by program fees and our Access Program, enabling more students to have this opportunity. Investing in AMIGOS today has a ripple impact for years and decades to come. Thank you for joining us!
National Chapter: Gifts support the AMIGOS Annual Fund, which provides financial assistance to students across the country.
Why Give Nationally?
- Fund global infrastructure and organization-wide efforts.
- Support financial assistance where the needs are greatest.
- Contribute to national initiatives like the Social Impact Accelerator.
Local Chapter: Gifts support individual AMIGOS chapters in major cities across the United States. Individual AMIGOS chapters provide discounts, financial assistance, and supplement local program costs through fundraising activities.
Why Give Locally?
- Support youth and families within a specific city or region.
- Enhance regional board operations and alumni networks.
- Contribute to local scholarships for students in your area.
Amigos de las Americas is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization, and your donation is generally tax deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law. You will receive a receipt via email for your records, which you can use when filing your taxes.
We recommend consulting your tax advisor for guidance specific to your situation, as deductibility may depend on factors such as the type of donation and your individual tax circumstances.
Our EIN (Employer Identification Number) is 74-1547146, which you may need when claiming your deduction.
We gladly accept donations by check! Please make your check payable to Amigos de las Américas and mail it to:

To help us process your gift correctly, please include a note with your name, mailing address, and email (in case we have questions or need to send a receipt). If your gift is in honor or memory of someone, please note that as well. You will receive a tax receipt by mail or email once your donation is recorded.
