The APS Volunteer Program (Get Involved) seeks to enable our volunteers to have the experience they want to have - this is how we feel they can contribute most effectively and teach us the most. If a volunteer has an idea on how to improve our work, that idea is likely to be used.
People from all backgrounds and walks of life, Spanish-speaking or not, have volunteered for APS. Here is just a small list of former APS volunteers and their contributions:

Dr. Saul Contreras Martinez was born in a small town in Guatemala. His family has a history of achievements and his medical degree is one of them. When he was forced to flee the killing and violence of the wars, he joined other family . . .
Any amount of money can help the people of Nicaragua in so many ways. And now it is easy to give. APS can accept your donation online through our sister organization, Co-Development Canada . . .
