Nonprofit Overview
Mission: To conduct charitable, scientific and educational programs to further, foster and promote world peace and understanding among the people of the world. The organization offers programs to individuals, generally ages 11 to 18 that provide the opportunity to learn to live amicably with all nationalities, to cooperate with other groups having similar purposes through networking and to contribute through research to a study of international relations.
Programs: Village - a four-week international camp attended by delegations of 11 year old (2 boys and 2 girls) children with an adult leader from each of 12 nations. Village activities allow the participants the opportunity to live in a community, work together on common goals, and learn how alike all people are despite their cultural differences.
hosting - an ongoing educational program for youth and adult members of the organization and for non-members. Its purpose is to reinforce experiences in the international programs and to nurture further development of international friendships. It helps to bring the organization to the local community and to allow people who have not participated in the organization's programs to become involved.
seminar camp - a three-week camp for 17 and 18 year olds held in different country locations. Participants are encouraged to look at the world as a whole and explore and discuss issues in relation to differing views of young people from other nations and cultures.
