What is Friendship Force?
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!
- Make friends around the world
- Stay in homes of people around the world
- Host in your home people from around the world
- Foster International good will
- Enhance cross-cultural understanding

Note From the President
August has arrived and the board of FFK has been meeting consistently to monitor the COVID-19 situation and move forward intelligently with the club and activities. After a great deal of discussion and communication with the San Antonio chapter it has been determined that hosting this year is not an option as the number of members who would be able to participate would be limited. Please refer to the journey coordinator posting for more information.
In an attempt to improve and expand the service to the members Ray Simko and the phone tree will be contacting each member to clarify interests. Please use this opportunity to help us as a board be responsive to your interest/desires.
FFI is adding new activities regularly and I encourage all of you to visit the site and participate in programs offered .https://www.friendshipforce.org/
