Global Landmine Initiative
Your Next Step Makes Their Next Step Possible
The Secret of Our Success
Really, it’s no secret at all. YOU are the secret to our success. To quote the great Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., "You don’t have to have a college degree to serve…You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love."

Clearing minefields and returning them to agricultural fields enables beneficiaries to support themselves and their families.
Landmines Destroy.
Donors Restore.
It's That Simple.

Thanks to generous chapter members and donors of all ages, People to People International was able to provide a grant of $51,000 USD from its International Friendship Fund to The HALO Trust for landmine clearance in Cambodia. This year marks the third year that PTPI has supported landmine eradification efforts in Cambodia after previously focusing for three years on needs in Sri Lanka.
PTPI chapter members and friends around the world are encouraged to support our efforts on the occasion of United Nations’ Mine Awareness Day ~ April 4, 2010 ~ and Global Youth Service Day ~ April 23-24, 2010. Please consider PTPI’s Global Landmine Initiative when planning your chapter events or Global Youth Service Day Projects! By helping to raise awareness and collecting funds for PTPI’s Global Landmine Initiative, we can pool our efforts to continue supporting our HSTAMIDS (smart-detector) team, which has a proven record of success in Cambodia.
