Youth Exchange Program
The most powerful force in the promotion of international understanding
and peace is exposure to different cultures. The world becomes a smaller,
friendlier place when we learn that all people — regardless of nationality
— desire the same basic things: a safe, comfortable environment that allows
for a rich and satisfying life for our children and ourselves. Youth Exchange
provides thousands of young people with the opportunity to meet people from
other lands and to experience their cultures. This plants the seeds for a
lifetime of international understanding.
