Friendship Force is a non-profit international organization that promotes cultural understanding through personal contact. The Friendship Force of Knoxville utilizes travel as a means to meet people from different cultures and places rather than emphasizing the place itself. By being a guest in other people's homes and by inviting them to be a guest in our homes, we believe we can break barriers that divide us.
Change the way you see the world!

Note from the President
Spring has sprung in Friendship Force Knoxville! FFK members enjoyed a delightful program in historic Dandridge March 26 - a delicious lunch and visit in the lovely Shepard Inn followed by a walking tour of downtown historic sites led by Bob Jarnigan, the official Historian and lifelong resident of Dandridge. Despite the rainy weather, all had a wonderful time. Thanks to Program Chair Marsha Mitchell who made all the arrangements!
April 4-7, five FFK members made new friends in our outbound journey to Friendship Force of Central North Carolina which including a wine tasting at a winery in Mocksville, museums and history tours, welcome dinner in Winston-Salem, and museums and a Jewish Festival in Greensboro. All had a wonderful time! As always, Journey Coordinator Leslie Badaines worked well with FFCNC to ensure all went smoothly. Please check out the great photos from both on FFK's Facebook page!
Details for our April 23 program meeting are on page 1 and information about our upcoming Inbound Journey from Manitoba, Canada May 1-8, is on page 5 of the April Newsletter.
