AMERICA IS ...

a place where there are boundless ways to better one's life!


OPPORTUNITY

"I had a dream when I was five years old to be a figure skater. After a few years of competing, I realized that it takes more than just dreaming to make your dreams come true. It takes a lot of hard work and discipline. I encourage you to work hard and to stay positive and dream. Have big goals and stay motivated, because dreams do come true."
— Olympic Skater Michelle Kwan, the first U.S. Public Diplomacy Envoy
