Vision: The Museum of the Peace Corps Experience envisions connecting people around the world to inspire service and peace, showing that our common humanity is more fundamental than the cultures and ideas that separate us.
Mission: The Museum of the Peace Corps Experience collects and preserves stories and objects of material culture donated by volunteers who serve in communities around the globe. It fosters cultural understanding through education and promotes research on the impact of Peace Corps, encouraging visitors to serve—wherever they live, however they can.
As Returned Peace Corps Volunteers, we have many skills that are needed today: cross-cultural understanding, language skills, flexibility, and understanding of others. Partnerships like these, allow RPCVs to channel the expertise and passion we bring into the projects and initiatives of organizations that need our experience, cross-cultural fluency, advanced language abilities, and technical competencies that we have gained and they enhance our capacity to create meaningful change here in the US, much as we have done since Sargent Shriver first called us to ‘Serve, Serve, Serve’.
