Tips to Promote IPS

  • Moments for Peace highlights biographies of some of the current recipients.  Chapter IPS Chairs, please be sure to share this at your chapter meetings (available on below website link).
  • IPS differs from other P.E.O. projects in that chapters do not sponsor candidates. However, chapters can play a role in finding candidates.  If you are near a college or university with international students, share the IPS flyer found on the International website and help spread the word!
