Mission

Founded in 1982, Agros International enables rural poor families in Central America and Mexico to escape the cycle of poverty by purchasing their own land. Agros extends land loans to purchase farmland and partners with families in applying sustainable agricultural practices. Agros has helped nearly 4,000 people build new lives for themselves by facilitating land ownership and providing technical assistance, training, capital loans, village infrastructure and volunteer service teams to support the work and vision of community members. Agros' holistic development strategy includes: community organization, land ownership, housing and infrastructure, sustainable economic growth, and community education and training.
