John F Kennedy

Created the Peace Corps

My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man.

And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you - ask what you can do for your country.

The News in 1961

50 Years Later the Peace Corps is going strong! It is a true testament to the Legacy of John F Kennedy!

This is the original 1961 Pamphlet for the Peace Corps. You might recognize the quote. It's really famous!

I think the Peace Corps was a Good Idea because Kennedy wanted a way to fight the Cold War without Guns. The Peace Corps developed good will and important partnerships in the developing world.
