Overview

Associate Chapters bring together passionate individuals within a specific geographic boundary to carry out the mission of Partners of the Americas to connect, serve, and change lives in the Americas through implementing local community development projects, volunteerism, and mutual understanding.

Associate Chapters are recognized groups for the sole purpose of Partners of the Americas; therefore, Associate Chapters are not legally recognized by the local, state, or federal governments as official nonprofit organizations.
