    The document discusses Children's International Summer Villages (CISV), a nonprofit organization that aims to educate children about peace, inclusion, and international cooperation through various international exchange programs. CISV was founded in 1950 by Dr. Doris Allen to help children build friendships and overcome stereotypes between countries. The organization provides opportunities for children ages 11-25 from different countries to participate in camps, exchanges, and community projects to learn about other cultures and resolve international conflicts collaboratively. While the programs prepare youth for an increasingly globalized world, CISV relies on donations to operate its activities.

    Ive gotten a lot of friendships through CISV. Through my experiences I have realized that what CISV is all about comes to live not just during the activities but especially in between camps and activities.
