United States Peace Corps
The United States Peace Corps traces its roots and mission back to 1960, when US President John F. Kennedy challenged Americans to serve their country in the cause of peace by living and working in developing countries. From that inspiration grew an agency of the United States Federal Government devoted to promoting world peace and friendship through the achievement of three goals: (1) To help the people of interested countries and areas in meeting their needs for trained workers; (2) To help promote a better understanding of Americans on the part of the peoples served; and (3) To help promote a better understanding of other peoples on the part of Americans.
These three goals have guided a tradition of service that has earned respect and admiration in the United States, in the Philippines, and around the world. These three goals attract Volunteers, community partners, and Staff who embody both the United States’ and the Philippines’ most enduring values - hope, optimism, freedom, and opportunity. With our common spirit of service, dedication and idealism, the Peace Corps Philippines Program continues to meet our goals in innovative and inspiring ways.
The Peace Corps Philippines Program is an exciting and dynamic, mission-driven agency that has worked to empower Philippine communities since 1961, by working together towards sustainable human development. The Program is more vital than ever, working in various communities across the country. Well known for our excellence in program and training design, our agency attracts staff who seek opportunities to have a positive impact on the lives of their countrymen. If this appeals to you, we invite you to join our staff.
Peace Corps Philippines is currently hiring for the following positions. We look forward to receiving your application.
