 People to People International’s immersive student travel programs turn the world into a classroom, creating an educational and inspirational experience that cultivates meaningful connections between people of different countries. For over 60 years they have embodied the vision of President Dwight D. Eisenhower and allowed it to take us beyond the ordinary by helping mold our student travelers into global citizens. ABOUT PTPI After witnessing the horrors of the Holocaust, President Dwight D. Eisenhower recognized the surest way to break cycles of fear and misunderstanding was for people to understand one another. He knew that for this to be effective, it must come not through governments, but through the hearts of people yearning for dignity, freedom, and peace. People to People International (PTPI) was established by U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower on September 11, 1956 to enhance international understanding and friendship through educational, cultural, and humanitarian activities involving the exchange of ideas and experiences directly among peoples of different countries and diverse cultures. With its World Headquarters in Kansas City, Missouri USA, PTPI has reached more than 160 countries with people of all ages participating in our programs. With a U.S. not-for-profit [501 (c)(3)] tax rating, the organization is comprised of an international network of culturally knowledgeable global citizens who are an active force in creating and sustaining a more peaceful world.
