We need you!
Have you ever dreamed about experiencing another culture?
Exchange students enrich the lives of their host families, peers, teachers, and the entire community! Hosting is an amazing experience and an unforgettable time for the whole family. Most people walk away with a new member of the family, new traditions and menu ideas, great memories and a vacation invitation from abroad!
Our students bring their own spending money and insurance and totally integrate within the family; they are not a guest! You can expect them to do chores like American teenagers and participate in all of your usual family activities. One member of the host family can also earn the Presidential Volunteer Service Award and that looks great on college or job applications!
