In 1966 Lillian Carter, mother of President Jimmy Carter, applied for Peace Corps and was accepted as a Peace Corps Health Volunteer in India. Lillian worked at the Godrej Colony 30 miles from Mumbai for 21 months, during which she aided patients afflicted by leprosy. Here she is holding a young Indian child in one of the local community hospitals.
