Join us for a week of Fellowship! English as a Second Language, August 2 to 9, 2026 (Sun/Sun)
Cofradía de Suchitlán, Colima Mexico
Kevin Learned, Amy Stahl, and Cornelia Sprung invite you to join them for an incredible week of service with Project Amigo along with fellow Rotary Club of Boise and Boise Metro members! This unique opportunity allows you to experience fellowship in a new light and witness the remarkable impact we can achieve together.
Join us for a fun and inspiring journey to central Mexico, where you’ll contribute through volunteer service and enjoy meaningful recreation activities. Stay at our lodging in Cofradía and travel to surrounding areas. Gain insight into the mission by connecting with Becarios (scholars), who will share stories about their culture, history, and personal experiences.
You’ll have the joy to:
- Collaborate on service activities, often alongside the Becarios, and walk away experiencing Mexico while volunteering.
- Immerse yourself in Mexican culture and enjoy delicious, homemade food in a warm and welcoming environment.
- Share your knowledge & teach English as a second language to our Becarios, equipping them with essential skills for their future.
Your week of service includes lodging, excellent food, transportation to/from the airport, and organized activities and events while in Mexico. Children travel with an adult at a discount.
Don’t miss this unforgettable week filled with culture, community, service, and fun. Project Amigo can’t wait to welcome you to Cofradía!
