The resolution recognizes the significant contributions of the Peace Corps, an organization founded in 1960 by then-Senator John F. Kennedy, which has since seen over 240,000 volunteers serve in more than 140 countries. It highlights the agency's commitment to promoting world peace and friendship through various initiatives, including education, technology, and health care, particularly in areas like AIDS relief and environmental preservation.

In honor of the Peace Corps' impact, the resolution proclaims February 23rd through March 1st, 2025, as "Peace Corps Week" in the State of Rhode Island. It commends the organization and its volunteers for their dedication to improving lives both abroad and in the United States. Additionally, the resolution directs the Secretary of State to send a certified copy to the Director of the Peace Corps, Carol Spahn.
