ATLANTA — President Jimmy Carter turns 100 on Tuesday, Oct. 1! To celebrate, the Carter Center is asking the public to sign a virtual card on its website.
Jimmy Carter is the 39th president and the oldest living president of the United States. He and his wife, Rosalynn Carter, were married for 77 years before her death in November 2023.
The Carters founded The Carter Center in 1982 to help advance peace and health worldwide.
The organization said you can wish President Carter a happy 100th birthday by posting on its mosaic wall online.
The mosaic wall is an ode to Jimmy Carter's Pittsburgh speech on Oct. 27, 1976, "We have become not a melting pot but a beautiful mosaic. Different people, different beliefs, different yearnings, different hopes, different dreams."
The Carter Center is asking you to send birthday messages and photos to help build the mosaic wall, which depicts a portrait of The Carters throughout the years.
"Let’s honor his legacy together!" The Carter Center wrote on X.

Earlier in September, Jimmy Carter's 100th birthday was celebrated at the Fox Theatre with special tributes and musical performances.
"It's a great honor for my family to be able to share my grandfather. These are people, some of whom weren't even born when my grandfather was the president, who are just excited to be here and celebrate him as a human being beyond politics, beyond legacy and other things," his grandson Jason Carter said at the celebration.
