Peace Leaders

Be inspired by gifted speakers, public servants, artists, and advocates carrying the Destination Peace message.

Message from Emanuel C. Perlman

Helping and guiding people has been Manny Perlman's life's work and passion, and peace has been his sustained mission since he was very young. During Covid-19, Destination Peace began with an hour seen around the world, hoping to bring tranquility into people's lives.

The organization continues to invite gifted speakers and performers to uplift, connect, and guide people toward a more peaceful public life.
