The correct answer is "true."
It is true that President Kennedy inspired thousands of Americans to volunteer for the Peace Corps to share their experience and knowledge with less fortunate nations.
It was John F. Kennedy, a Democrat candidate who proposed the creation of the Peace Corps to the students of Michigan University in Ann Arbor. The date: October 14, 1960.
That is why, once he became the President of the United States, John F. Kennedy signed an executive order on March 1, 1961. He was ordering the creation of the Peace Corps as a way for young American people to help the United States and other parts of the world that were in need.
