In cooperation with the Congressional Award Leadership Commission, People to People International established the James and Eunice Doty People to People/Congressional Award Scholarship Fund. At the end of each calendar year, four scholarships are awarded by the fund to junior high and high school students who have earned the Congressional Award that year. The scholarship underwrites participation in a People to People International trip during the summer months of 2010.

People to People International is an educational, cultural and humanitarian exchange organization founded in 1956 by President Dwight D. Eisenhower. Its purpose is to advance international understanding through the direct exchange of ideas and experiences among people of different countries.
