Who We Are
Friendship Force
International is a worldwide network of clubs and individuals that
advance our mission of promoting global understanding across the
barriers that separate people. We do this by connecting people from
different countries at a personal level. When local hosts open their
homes to visitors from other countries and cultures, true
understanding can develop through the sharing of meals, conversation
and the routines of daily life. Since its founding in 1977 FFI has
brought together millions of people. In 2007 alone, 5767 friendship
ambassadors traveled between 58 countries, with thousands more serving
as hosts. Our mission, structure and activities are described on our
website:
