Who is People to People?
People to People was founded in 1956 by President Dwight D.
Eisenhower, who believed that ordinary citizens of different
nations, if able to communicate directly, would solve their
differences and find a way to live in peace. This simple thought
– that people can make a difference where government cannot – is
People to People’s foundation. Since 1963, People to People has
taken thousands of students and adults across international
borders to connect with people all over the world.
