Older Americans contribute tremendously
to Peace Corps programs all over the globe. No single group has more to
offer in terms of experience, maturity, and demonstrated ability.
Many
older Volunteers find their age to be an asset while serving overseas.
You will have the opportunity to share a lifetime of work and wisdom with
people of developing nations who respect and appreciate age. And because there's
no upper age limit to serve, it's never too late—Volunteers who are well
into their eighties have served and continue to serve.
