ORGANIZATION: Greenheart Exchange

Greenheart Exchange, a non-profit student exchange organization, is seeking a host family in the Buffalo, NY area to host a French exchange student, Solene, for 4 weeks starting July 1 st, 2018. Solene is 16 years old and is on our Independent Homestay Program. She will spend time with the host participating in everyday activities and exploring the community on her own, with the aim of improving her English and getting to know American culture. Solene’s interests include baking cakes, going to the theater with her family, acting in theater, and sports such as climbing and biking.

Hosting can help you make an international friend and explore your own community through new eyes.

Hosts provide a bed (student may share a room with similarly aged host sibling), meals, and a warm and safe environment. Our students come with spending money and insurance. A local American coordinator provides ongoing support to the student and host family. A few short weeks can lead to lifetime friendships!
