The Friendship Force is not a travel club although the core activity is travelling in groups, to stay with like-minded people in other countries (a cultural journey).
The first priority is to develop friendships and through this to generate understanding across cultural boundaries.

Unique travel experiences focused on friendships.
Hosting interesting people from around the world.

Friendship Force International (FFI) is an international, non-political, non-sectarian, and non-profit organisation.
The main aim of Friendship Force is to foster peace and understanding throughout the world by means of personal contacts and shared experiences achieved through a programme of home hosting. With over 300 clubs in over 60 countries throughout the world, it is coordinated from the international headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia, USA.
