Description

Fuel the power of human connection by donating to the Peace Corps Partnership Program, which connects Volunteers with donors to fund local projects—from building school gardens to digging wells, from teaching digital literacy to training health care workers—and more.

The Peace Corps tackles challenges that know no borders—economic resilience, disease prevention, food security, education and conservation. Although times have changed since the Peace Corps' founding in 1961, the agency's purpose—to promote world peace and friendship—has not.

Through the generous support of donors across America, the Peace Corps Partnership Program funds hundreds of community-initiated projects each year. Your tax-deductible gift to the Global Fund will help support local work focused on transforming lives all over the world. Consider donating in honor or in memory of a loved one.
