AFS summer camp!

Every summer and winter AFS arrange a summer camp for the exchange, ex-exchange and pre-exchange students - and for everyone else who wants to participate. But this isn't a camp like any other camp. At "Campamento AFS Quintay 2010" Chilean youths, including 10 exchange students, worked as voluntaries. The goal was to help out by constructing a home for some of the most needing families in the small town of Quintay.

We had a great time, working during the whole day. At night we got the chance to relax, get to know the other teams and reflect on the day's impressions. Thank you guys, for making this an amazing experience in so many ways.

Some of the amazing persons in the team.

Working as a voluntary for AFS and Chile.

In the very beginning of the construation.
The carpet you see, was everything the family of three,
Don Valentin, Yolanda and Sebastian (11 years old), had.

Every day we had activities, breakfast and lunch for the children in Quintay.

We also helped out with some smaller reperations for other families.
