Kul Chandra Gautam: Support the mission of peace and solidarity in D.C. and the world
Dear supporters,
I write to you today as one of the thousands of Nepalis–and perhaps millions of people around the world–whose lives have been touched and transformed by their association with the Peace Corps.
I am in the last phase of my life now, after a successful career and fulfilling life devoted to serving humanity. I do not need or seek any more personal awards, rewards or glory now.
But I do cherish a hope – a dream really – that we can turn this wonderful program and the community of people it represents into an inspiration for people around the world to dedicate themselves to helping those in need no matter where they are.
Please help the Peace Corps Foundation make this dream a reality.
Kul Chandra Gautam
Assistant Secretary-General of the United Nations (2000–2007)
Deputy Director, UNICEF (2000–2007)
