Mission: Friends International helps organize community programs in developing countries throughout Africa, Central & South America to help individuals become self-sufficient. These programs are developed upon request of the host country or community. We do NOT go into any area to tell them what they should be doing. We are there only to assist and help them do what they decide they would like to do. For further information about Friends International, Inc. go to www.friendsinternational.org Friends International also has a domestic program of working with multicultural at-risk youth, blind and visually impaired and mentally challenged individuals in a summer sailing program to teach leadership and cooperation among participants. This program is carried out aboard donated sailing vessels moored in Portland, Maine. We are ready and able to replicate this program in other areas upon request.
