...have all benefitted from PTPI's School & Classroom partnerships and projects.

Bring the World to Your Classroom.

The first step towards a more peaceful tomorrow is investing in children today. This free program offers teachers around the world resources, projects, and global connections with teachers and PTPI members to support the development of globally-minded and culturally-competent students.
The School & Classroom Program (SCP) is a completely free service that matches your classroom with another classroom from across the globe. While you teach global history and tell stories about adventures in a land far, far away, you can build friendships for your students with others from these very lands.
By registering your class, you will be matched with a classroom of similar age and size. You’ll receive an SCP guidebook that will help you to build a curriculum that fits the needs of both classrooms. Through pen pal relationships and shared projects, your students will develop global mindedness and exposure to amazing cultures and traditions. This amazing program is very adaptable and can be as simple or in-depth as a teacher chooses for their students.
Register now for the coming session to be matched with a partner classroom from a “far away land”. New partner classrooms will begin their cross-cultural adventure in May of 2019.
Should you have any questions, please contact us at +1.816.531.4701 or email ptpi@ptpi.org. Thank you for promoting cultural understanding and global awareness among the next generation!

ART IS A UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE

Global Youth Murals allows K-12 students, ages 4-18, from around the world to express their unique global perspective through art. This year’s theme, One People, One World, well describes PTPI's mission of connecting people and cultures from all walks of life while celebrating diversity. To be considered for an award, submissions should arrive at PTPI World Headquarters in Kansas City, USA no later than October 30th. Additional information, including instructions for creating the murals, is available in our Global Youth Mural guidelines.

JOYCE C. HALL SCHOLARSHIP

The Joyce C. Hall College Scholarship is possible through funding provided by a direct bequest from Mr. Hall when he passed. This program not only illustrates the importance of the People to People's mission to Mr. Hall, it is also a symbol of the longstanding partnership between Hallmark and People to People International. Each year, up to five scholarships are awarded to university students who have shown a commitment to the mission and values of PTPI. CLICK HERE TO READ MORE
