Today, Oct. 1, marks the 100th birthday of former U.S. President Jimmy Carter. Carter, who served as the 39th President from 1977 to 1981, and is widely remembered for his dedication to peace, diplomacy, and human rights. His presidency was marked by efforts such as the Camp David Accords, which brought peace between Egypt and Israel, and his focus on energy conservation and environmental protection.
After leaving office, Carter’s legacy only grew through his humanitarian work with the Carter Center, which has promoted global health, democracy, and conflict resolution. His hands-on commitment to Habitat for Humanity also earned him admiration worldwide.
Though his presidency was often seen as challenging, Carter’s post-presidential years have made him one of the most respected former leaders, a man devoted to making the world a better place.
