How do PhD programs view unrelated volunteer experience?

I'm thinking stuff like the Peace Corps, etc. Would doing something like that be looked at as a good thing by PhD programs? Or would it be looked down upon for being an indication of not being focused enough on stats/biostats? Or would programs pretty much ignore it and treat it as a two year gap?

Asking because I'm in such a program right now and have no clue how that will impact my chances (if at all).
