People to People is a great organization. Not just for HS kids, but for business, medicine, law and many other groups. Eisenhower started it for people to get to know people from other lands and cultures.

Most kids work to raise the money to go or get sponsors. Unless you are quite rich, how many other ways can a HS student go overseas with other HS kids and live in homes of people of other nations? Very few.

Adcoms do look at it. They also look at going to Space program, being a counselor at a church or BSA camp, etc. It is what makes you different from the kid that stays home and plays nindendo all summer
