Pre-program training is well established at AYUDA. In 2024, AYUDA continued to improve its volunteer training process to deliver dynamic online training sessions (VTP E-course) to supplement in-person training(VTP Summit). Additional cultural orientation took place in-country. The AYUDA VTP offered a comprehensive, culturally aware, and well-received approach to diabetes education, social entrepreneurship, and leadership training. Focusing on AYUDAs founding principle of youth leadership and empowerment, AYUDA trained and placed over 20 volunteers abroad in 2024. Of note, over half of AYUDA's returning volunteers were Experienced AYUDA Volunteers from the previous year - further highlighting AYUDA's commitment to youth leadership training and youth civic engagement.Dominican Republic (DR) Volunteer Programs:Campo Amigo Volunteer Program AYUDA continued its support and collaboration with Aprendiendo a Vivir (AAV) in the DR in 2023. AAV is AYUDAs local partner in the DR, and AYUDA has been partnering with the organization since 2009. The AYUDA Campo Amigo DR Volunteer program was AYUDA's first program in the DR and is aimed at those who want to empower local children who have type 1 diabetes and their families. During this program, AYUDA volunteers collaborated with AYUDA's partner organization AAV. AYUDA volunteers, led by AYUDA staff, worked closely with AAV local staff, local endocrinologists, and rising youth leaders to plan and implement community outreach projects and diabetes education. Workshops supported peopole with diabetes of all ages and their families in multiple provinces in the DR. The team worked together to run Campo Amigo: a two-weekend long diabetes education program focused on children with type 1 diabtes and their families. Volunteers will also participate in-home visits and outreach trips to nearby cities, such as San Pedro de Macoris and San Cristobal, to see first-hand how these families manage their children's diabetes. Over 300 children and family members attended the camps.DR Internship ProgramThe AYUDA Internship was created to provide AYUDAs dual-program volunteers with an opportunity to pursue their academic and/or professional interests.Ecuador OutreachAYUDA continued its support of its longest running program: Campo Amigo Ecuador by providing office space for the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation of Ecuador (FDJE), our local partner organization in Quito. 128980 true false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 0 0 false 0 false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 4 6 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false MD X NICOLAS CUTTRISS 3019904990 814 WEST DIAMOND AVENUE STE 150 GAITHERSBURG MD 20878 X NICOLAS CUTTRISS Chairman 10.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 MARSHA BASLOE Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 BENNO C SCHMIDT III Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 KIM MORSE Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 0 false false false 0 142207 142207 0 435 435 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 142642 435 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 4085 4085 0 0 0 31800 31800 8427 8427 75 75 0 0 581 581 70475 70475 0 0 7214 7214 0 2255 2255 1327 1327 TRAINING 5218 5218 BANK SERVICE CHARGES 1009 1009 EQUIPMENT RENTAL 784 784 COMPUTER SUPPLIES 534 534 899 899 134683 128980 5703 0 35303 64916 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2586 2576 79847 37094 42528 42753 0 0 0 0 4 3 80421 110248 58663 80531 58663 80531 X -27403 -19444 49161 49161 21758 29717 80421 110248 7959 X false true X true false X 98131 76676 95916 96535 142207 509465 0 0 98131 76676 95916 96535 142207 509465 0 509465 823 435 1258 0 0 510723 0.99750 0.99830 X 18000 18000 54000 31500 22500 7096 4869 2227 751 725 26 42753 Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b No review was or will be conducted.
