Printing Beyond Borders

PRESIDENT DWIGHT D. Eisenhower had a dream of developing a program that would promote international understanding and friendship. So in 1956, Eisenhower founded People to People, basing the organization on his idea that direct contact between ordinary citizens from different parts of the world can encourage cultural understanding and world peace. Eight U.S. Presidents have served as the honorary chairman of People to People International. Since it's inception, People to People Ambassador Programs, based in Spokane, Wash., has served as People to People International's global educational travel provider. It is responsible for organizing and promoting travel opportunities aimed at bridging cultural and political borders by providing interaction, access and unique experiences. Its Marketing Production Systems department is charged with the task of recruiting and retaining students, athletes, educators and professionals interested in educational travel opportunities.
