Another image in honor of UW's number one spot for volunteers

Photos and such for my Peace Corps/Global Citizenship map

Signed by President John F Kennedy on March 1, 1961, Exec. Order 10924 created the Peace Corps on a pilot basis. As President Kennedy proclaimed in his remarks for the occasion, "Our Peace Corps is not designed as an instrument of diplomacy or propaganda or ideological conflict. It is designed to permit our people to exercise more fully their responsibilities in the great common cause of world development."
