Peace Corps Morocco is one of the Peace Corps oldest programs. Since 1963, the generosity of spirit, friendship and genuine care that Moroccan communities, families, and officials lend to Peace Corps volunteers have made the Kingdom a welcoming place for over 5,000 volunteers. As a Peace Corps Morocco Volunteer said, 'I am still amazed how many people in my community welcomed me into their homes without hesitation. They embraced me from day one, and I will never forget that.'
