The purpose of People to People International (PTPI) is to enhance international understanding and friendship through educational, cultural, and humanitarian activities involving the exchange of ideas and experiences directly among peoples of different countries and diverse cultures. While not a partisan or political institution, PTPI supports the basic values and goals of its founder, President Dwight D. Eisenhower. In 2009, PTPI student members demonstrated their commitment to service by participating in more than 70 Global Youth Service Day projects.
New York to Ghana, Ukraine to Sri Lanka, PTPI student members made a difference by planting trees, donating school supplies to Operation International Children, beautifying their communities and more. In 2010, PTPI seeks to yet again increase participation in GYSD with the help of all of its student members around the world!
