ThirdGoal.org is a non-profit community project designed to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Peace Corps in 2011 by collecting the best stories, photos, and videos of the 200,000 Peace Corps Volunteers who have served since 1961. We will crowdsource the best content from the first 50 years of Peace Corps history. Winners of weekly contests will be awarded prizes courtesy of our sponsors and highlighted on the front page of the website, in our weekly podcasts, and promoted on Facebook and Twitter. In 2011, we hope to publish a coffee-table book featuring the most popular content collected on the website from the 200,000 Peace Corps volunteers who have served since 1961. All proceeds from the sale of the 50th anniversary book will be donated to the Peace Corps Office of Private Sector Initiatives, to fund Peace Corps partnership grants supporting the work of current Peace Corps Volunteers and their communities around the world.
