HISTORY
OUR STORY BEGINS on September 11, 1956, with U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower, who believed that “peaceful relations between nations require understanding and mutual respect between individuals”. People to People International’s (PTPI) illustrious history includes businessmen such as J. C. Hall, celebrities like Bob Hope, and visionaries such as Walt Disney. Today, our outreach extends to more than 160 countries with a cross-cultural network of everyday citizens who explore global issues, serve and enrich their diverse communities, and are effective leaders in creating a more peaceful world.
