Ambassador Dan Shapiro, Consul General Don Blome, USAID Mission Director Dave USAID , and other staff joined Israeli and Palestinian participants from PeacePlayers International (PPI) for a basketball game. This is the third year in a row that U.S. Government representatives joined PeacePlayers youth to what has now become a tradition. PPI uses the game of basketball to bridge divides between people. PPI is supported both by USAID and the Department of State. The U.S. Government is proud to partner with PPI and support activities that promote coexistence, tolerance, and respect for diversity.
