About

The Peace Corps is a service opportunity for motivated changemakers to immerse themselves in a community abroad, working side by side with local leaders to tackle the most pressing challenges of our generation.

Mission
In 1961, President John F. Kennedy established the Peace Corps to promote world peace and friendship through three enduring goals:
1. To help the people of interested countries in meeting their need for trained men and women.
2. To help promote a better understanding of Americans on the part of the peoples served.
3. To help promote a better understanding of other peoples on the part of Americans.

Description
The Peace Corps traces its roots and mission to 1960, when then Senator John F. Kennedy challenged students at the University of Michigan to serve their country in the cause of peace by living and working in developing countries. From that inspiration grew an agency of the federal government devoted to world peace and friendship.

Since that time, over 220,000 Peace Corps Volunteers have served in 141 host countries to work on issues ranging from HIV/AIDS education to youth development, sustainable agriculture, and environmental preservation.

Today's Peace Corps is more vital than ever, working in emerging and essential areas such as women's economic empowerment, and contributing to the President's Malaria and Feed the Future Initiatives. Peace Corps Volunteers continue to help countless individuals who want to build a better life for themselves, their children, and their communities.
