Amigos de las Americas Paraguari 2012 Staff Fundraising
Dear friends, family, and former Paraguay Project Staff,
This summer, AMIGOS will have 14 projects in Peru, Paraguay, Ecuador, Costa Rica, Mexico, Nicaragua, the Dominican Republic, and Panama. For over 40 years, AMIGOS has worked in Latin America on an array of health, education and environmental projects in local communities. This will be our 41st year in Paraguay!! We are very excited about the new initiatives that AMIGOS is pursing to involve Latin American youth in leadership and community development. This summer in Paraguay, we will be working with Plan International, SENASA, and Junior Achievement to develop environmental and community health education and youth leadership programs in 25 communities. We are particularly excited about the leadership training and local youth involvement that this summer will bring.
We would be honored if you would support the important work that AMIGOS will do this summer. Even if only a small donation is possible, your participation means the world to us. We've devoted our summer to the organization, and by donating you will help continue the great work AMIGOS undertakes.
Support AMIGOS in creating more youth leaders this coming summer:
• $10 Provides seeds for a community garden
• $25 Provides materials and instruction to teach a classroom of children about hygiene and good nutrition
• $50 Improves family nutrition and community reforestation with fruit trees
• $100 Constructs three latrines to improve community health and sanitation
• $250 Provides seeds for family gardens in 20+ communities
• $350 Funds a leadership workshop for U.S. and Latin American youth
• $500 Builds a playground for one community
If you send a donation of $25 or greater, we'll even send you a postcard from Paraguay!
Thank you so much for your support and we look forward to sending updates from Paraguay this summer!
Muchisimas gracias,
The 2012 Paraguari, Paraguay Project Staff
