Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

We aim to give every International CP the warmest welcome, to help them adjust to life in America, to meet their immediate needs, and to provide a “home away from home” experience.

WELCOME
Locally and globally, Agape Source provides Friendship, Care and Love. We aim to give every International CP the warmest welcome, to help them adjust to life in America, to meet their immediate needs, and to provide a “home away from home” experience.

SHARE
Agape Source seeks to foster an environment where different cultures can come together to learn about each other. We love sharing explaining aspects of American culture with curious students. Likewise, we want to learn from visiting students' own lives, cultures, and perspectives – wherever they are from. In brief, we care deeply about the kind of exchanges found in friendship.

MENTOR
We mentor international students through empowering personal growth, helping them pursue dreams and passions, offering ethical and moral perspective, and even just providing a safe place for them to process through their cultural transition in the US.

Each of our staff has experienced cross-cultural living and understands that life in a foreign country can be a challenging adjustment.

Since our founding in 2016, we have assisted over 1200 international interns.
