Nobel Peace Prize

In 2002 I was given the Nobel peace prize. It was a big honor to me to receive this. The main reason was for my humanitarian work. This was through The Carter Center. I had been trying very hard to create peace in the Middle East, and am very proud to be recognized for my hard work.
I have also been working with Habitat for Humanity. I first started working with Habitat for Humanity in 1984. I started by leading a work group to New York City to help renovate a building for 19 families. I then continued to help people, and try to create peace. Once, again I am very glad to have been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

  1. Hi there Jimmy Carter, my name is Ike Eisenhower. I would just like to say that I am very impressed with your hard work on helping Habitat for Humanity. After reading your blog I did some reading on Habitat, and found that it has helped over one million people have a home. Now, although you're a democrat, I am very impressed with all that you have done for America. You know, I was a general in the army, and served in both world wars, so I know how it feels to be doing good. Thanks, Ike
