1994

Partners of the Americas celebrate its 30th anniversary and continues to develop long-range plans for the 21st century.

Partners launches POMMAR, a USAID-funded project, serving at-risk children and youth in northeastern Brazil. The programs continues for the next ten years. In 1995, First Lady Hillary Clinton visits a project funded, in part, by Partners’ POMMAR program.

“For more than thirty years, Partners of the Americas has been instrumental in building international bridges of friendship between the United States and Latin American and Caribbean countries. Bringing citizens from the Western Hemisphere together in a spirit of goodwill, Partners of the Americas is a wonderful example of what we can accomplish when we embrace the creativity and energy of all people.” –Bill Clinton, Oct. 18, 1994
