Following his presidency, Carter devoted decades to humanitarian work through The Carter Center, election monitoring, public health initiatives, and international diplomacy, earning the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp data-start=\"1655\" data-end=\"2063\"\u003eUnlike official presidential gifts, campaign memorabilia, or White House presentation items, personal household objects from the Carter family offer a rare and intimate connection to the private lives of Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter.
