AMIS (Atlanta Ministry with International Students) is the French word for “friends” and symbolizes our mission, which is to promote cultural understanding through friendship and hospitality with international students and scholars in the greater Atlanta area. Join us in welcoming these students to Atlanta, Georgia, and the US. You can make a difference in the life of a future global leader while making a new friend!

Amigo Friendship Program

AMIS’s Friendship Program matches an international student with an American volunteer in the local community for friendship and sharing of cultures. Your support can help an international student in their adjustment to American life, culture and language, as well as introduce them to our city. We ask you to meet at least once for a meal, event, or outing and continue your friendship over the school year as you have time and opportunity. AMIS will provide support and group events for friendship partners.
