Since 1947, AFS has evolved from a traditional student exchange organization to embrace a more robust agenda that prepares and empowers global citizens. As a result, AFSers are making a huge impact around the world in significant ways. Their contributions—big and small—encourage and inspire us to make AFS even stronger going forward.

As cultural, religious and other differences continue to fuel conflicts, AFS remains committed to foster intercultural exchanges, learning and understanding as a powerful and productive way to help create a more just and peaceful world. The 2015 AFS Annual Report reflects five fundamental strategies that help us achieve this critical mission.

1. AFS offers structured intercultural learning and global citizenship education. After almost 70 years in study abroad, we know that immersive cultural experiences are not enough. So AFS has developed comprehensive learning programs specifically designed for students, host families, volunteers, staff and others.

2. AFS volunteer training develops a range of skills that last a lifetime: Supporting students and families, facilitating intercultural learning, changemaking and helping manage a dynamic international organization provide AFS volunteers with meaningful personal growth and professional development opportunities.

3. AFS programs help students and volunteers build critical leadership skills. We prepare today's and tomorrow's leaders to collaborate and lead across cultural differences—all essential 21st-century skills needed in a global world.

4. AFS encourages students, volunteers and families to embrace changemaking and social impact projects to improve local, national and global communities. We also support and value initiatives that extend our “learning to live together” philosophy to make a real difference in the world as a volunteer, in our professional lives or working for governments, nonprofits and NGOs.

5. AFS creates strong global partnerships. As an international nonprofit and intercultural learning organization, we encourage all AFSers to connect and work with schools, universities, humanitarian and peace groups, governments and other NGOs on the issues that reflect our mission. In 2015, we were particularly proud to be designated an official partner of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).

Thank you to the AFS global community for helping to make our mission become a reality on so many levels. And congratulations to AFS Argentina, AFS Costa Rica, AFS Latvia, AFS Hungary and AFS India for celebrating milestone anniversaries in 2015.

88 TRANSFORMING THE VOLUNTEER EXPERIENCE

2015 was a pivotal year for volunteerism at AFS—a year of reflection, research and realigning our core values with the future realities of volunteering.

Volunteers serve as the driving force of AFS by helping students, host families and schools learn to live together. They facilitate the transformative AFS experience—what we call the #AFSeffect—in others. And volunteers help keep our organization strong by serving on boards, work groups and task forces to constantly drive improvement.

Although rethinking our volunteer experience required questioning assumptions, the ultimate role of AFS volunteers remains true: Bringing people together to promote intercultural understanding is more important than ever.

Keeping this in mind, the AFS International Organizational Development team also explored what volunteers want to gain personally and professionally while supporting students, host families and schools. The answer was loud and clear: As they help others, volunteers believe their AFS experience should help them learn, grow and make a difference too.

The new AFS Strategic Framework for Volunteer Development introduced in October 2015 sets the foundation to make this happen. AFS Malaysia and AFS International forum highlights Empowering young AFS volunteers the importance of volunteerism to civil society

How can young volunteers have a bigger voice in The Volunteering & Growing Impact Forum, organized by AFS? That was the focus of the AFS Youth Volunteer Yayasan AFS Antarabudaya Malaysia (AFS Malaysia) Forum held in Buenos Aires, Argentina in April 2015, and AFS International in October 2015 in Kuala sponsored by AFS Argentina & Uruguay and organized Lumpur, explored how active volunteerism in the region with AFS International.

(“AFS International”) is a not-for-profit organization incorporated under the laws of New York State, USA, and is a tax-exempt organization under the Internal Revenue Code 501(c)(3) of the United States of America. AFS Partner organizations (“Partners”) are incorporated under the laws of the country in which they are located and likewise prepare financial statements and tax reports as required by the jurisdictions in their respective countries.

Each Partner undergoes an annual fiscal audit and presents to AFS International a copy of the independent auditor’s opinion along with its financial statements. While rules and regulations vary among Partner nations, audits generally follow standards consistent with GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles). The tables presented are not the result of an audit performed by one firm but represent combined information from audits performed by independent auditors in each Partner country. The information for the three years shown has been gathered from the audited financial statements of all the Partners and AFS International for these years. The resulting tables reflect the combined financial activity in the AFS worldwide network of Partners and include a regional summary for the fiscal year 2014. The compilation of the 2015 financial statements will be available once the annual audits around the world are completed.

Dr. Urs-Rainer von Arx Vice President, Chief Operations & Financial Officer

AFS values AFS enables people to act as responsible, global citizens working for peace and understanding in a diverse world. It acknowledges that peace is a dynamic concept threatened by injustice, inequity, and intolerance.

AFS seeks to affirm faith in the dignity and worth of every human being and of all nations and cultures. It encourages respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms without distinction as to race, sex, language, religion or social status.

AFS activities are based on our core values of dignity, respect for differences, harmony, sensitivity, and tolerance.
