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
Friendship Force Knoxville kicked off our 2023 journeys by hosting ambassadors from the Western Colorado club who were joined by ambassadors from Dayton, Ohio, Denver, Colorado, Richmond, Virginia, and Sarasota, Florida Friendship Force clubs. Many thanks to host coordinators Leslie Badaines and Betsy Tonkin who did a great job putting the inbound journey all together, as well as every FFK member who helped in any way. The journey was a big success.
Later this month we’ll tour a gem in our own backyard—the UT Botanical Gardens. In June we’re back journeying, this time we’ll be the ambassadors, hosted by the Western Colorado club.
There will be other opportunities this year to host and travel, but whether you can be a host or ambassador, I hope you can attend our monthly programs, now offered during
