Pennies for Peace
Our Pennies for Peace Program (P4P) educates American children about the world beyond their experience and how they can make a positive impact on a global scale, one penny at a time. It teaches children the rewards of sharing and working together to bring hope and education opportunities to the children in Pakistan and Afghanistan. A penny in the United States is virtually worthless, but overseas a penny buys a pencil and opens the door to literacy.
The best hope for a peaceful and prosperous world lies in the education of all the world’s children. Through cross-cultural understanding and a solution-oriented approach, P4P encourages American children, ultimately our future leaders, to be active participants in the creation of global peace.
The curriculum, reference list, and additional information on P4P can be found on our website www.penniesforpeace.org.
We invite you to participate in our P4P program and give lasting hope to children half a world away!
