(excerpted from The Friendship Force International) 

A World of Friends is a World of Peace The Friendship Force International, a nonprofit international cultural exchange organization headquartered in Atlanta, was founded with a single mission: to create an environment in which personal friendships are established across the barriers that separate people. It is active in more than 60 countries, promoting friendship and goodwill through an extensive program of homestay exchanges. More than half a million participants have experienced the personal enrichment and cross-cultural understanding that results from a Friendship Force exchange.

Friendship Force International was founded in 1977 by its first president, Wayne Smith and was announced on March 1, 1977, by President Jimmy Carter at White House gathering of state governors.
