The Peace Corps traces its roots back to 1960, when 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. Volunteers were sent to 139 host countries to work on issues ranging from AIDS education to information technology and environmental preservation.
Mission:
1. Helping the people of interested countries in meeting their need for trained men and women.
2. Helping promote a better understanding of Americans on the part of the peoples served.
3. Helping promote a better understanding of other peoples on the part of Americans.
well that's all for now.
