Be part of history once again!
The Peace Corps Legacy Association and National Peace Corps Association are excited to launch the “2026 for 2026” donation challenge for the Peace Corps Plaza—an opportunity to continue showing your leadership by leaving your mark as a unique symbol of American history. Construction of the Peace Corps Plaza, located in Minnesota, is planned for the summer of 2026. We are seeking 2,026 brick donations to the Peace Corps Plaza by the year 2026, upon which construction will begin.

To date, 70% of brick donors are Peace Corps Pioneers – RPCVs who served between 1961-81. By contributing to the goal of 2,026 brick donations, your personalized brick—like those of other Pioneers—will stand as a testament to your spirit of service. You will help create a powerful individual and collective visual reminder of your impact as Volunteers, both at home and around the world.
