When President Kennedy urged a generation to do more for their country, thousands of young people signed up for the new Peace Corps program. The volunteers traveled the world building schools, handing out food and teaching poor children. But then, they went out and started their own lives, becoming doctors, social workers and experts in their fields. These days, many are looking for ways to give back again. To bring qualified volunteers together with the citizens of the world who need help the most, Chris Klose co-founded Peace Corps Encore. He says people in their 50s, 60s, 70s and beyond are the ideal people to send into the field and represent the best of America to the world. Find out how you can change a life today.
