March 1-7: Peace Corps Week

[dgridley]

Each year during the Peace Corps anniversary, former Volunteers take time to celebrate the Peace Corps' birthday by sharing the knowledge and experience with their communities in the United States. As all Volunteers know, part of the Peace Corps' mission is to educate Americans back home about the people with whom they lived and worked. Peace Corps Week activities offer a great opportunity to promote a better understanding about the people of your host country among those in your current community. [source]

Nice post, Dave.

I'll have to wish my bro-in-law in California 'Happy Peace Corps week.'

Regards,
Keith

My Anthropology professor used to regale us with some fun Peace Corps stories.. if my health were better, that's the route I would have taken awhile back.
