Amizade is a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization. It empowers individuals and communities through worldwide service and learning. It has a 25-year record of cooperating with communities on service that local individuals and organizations define and direct. Our volunteers work directly with people in developing communities to identify issues, design and implement service projects, and ensure a sustainable progression of development.
Amizade means friendship in Portuguese.

To participate in the Sprout Fund's 100 Days of US launched in 2016, Amizade put together a video to show what the organization would do if one of their programs were funded. As a way to shine among competitors of the seed award, we created a short animated video highlighting the issues with the election that year and the possible outcomes with Amizade's programs.
> Thanks to the video, the organization received the necessary funds to execute its programming.
