Partners of the Americas is a non-profit international grassroots network that creates opportunities for individuals, institutions, and communities to discover how they can change our world through service, leadership, and by building relationships across the Americas.

The Sustainable Network Training Program will support the work of our Chapters by training the next generation of leaders, or Network Innovators, who will be the direct beneficiaries of the training. Through the training, the Network Innovators will ultimately impact hundreds of individuals living in their local communities as well as their Chapter’s partner communities in Latin America.

Our community encompasses the width and breadth of the Western Hemisphere. We believe in creating partnerships and building relationships that will change lives.

Partners has Chapters in 44 states in the United States, most of which are incorporated as their own 501(c) 3 organizations. These Chapters are linked in alliance with 53 other Chapters throughout Latin America and the Caribbean forming our core partnerships.

Our partnerships work together to carry out a wide range of activities to improve food supplies, deliver health services, provide job training for young people, protect the region's natural resources, and safeguard the rights of women and children.

Extended Impact on Your Partner Community

As a grassroots organization, investing in our volunteers is critical. The Sustainable Network Training Program is an opportunity for our members to further develop their fundraising skills needed to better connect, serve, and change lives. For each dollar raised, Partners members are able to more effectively leverage their communities in order to build sustainable programs and support innovative grassroots ideas that only need a small financial push to grow.
