| Message | Fifty years ago, when Senator John F. Kennedy was running for president, he made a campaign speech challenging college students to live and work in developing countries to promote world peace. From that spark, the US Peace Corps was formed and now tens of thousands of Americans have worked as peace corps volunteers around the globe. |
