ORGANIZATION: Idealist.org

Recruiting Organization: AMIS Atlanta

We believe that one person can make a difference in the life of an international college/graduate student or scholar studying in the US. International students are the best and brightest of their home countries and the future leaders of the world.

Through AMIS, volunteers can:

  • Get to know young people from different countries and learn about new cultures.
  • ​Welcome someone new to Atlanta and the U.S.
  • Share your knowledge, culture, and life skills with future world leaders.
  • Make a difference in a young professional's life.
  • Make a new friend!

Coming to the US can be a stressful, lonely, and intimidating experience, as well as a time of cultural adjustment. Offering friendship and hospitality to international students will help them to feel welcome in our city, give them confidence in their life here, and give them a positive experience with Americans. You may make a life-long friend, and you will expand your global perspectives as you get to know their cultures and experiences.

Short-term or year-long friendship opportunities are available.
