Spring is in the air, and what better time to open your heart and home to an international exchange student?
At Greenheart Exchange, we're looking for compassionate hosts like you to provide a welcoming environment for our students. Whether you're a family with kids, an empty nester, or a devoted pet parent, there's a place for you in our hosting community.

As a host, you'll offer three meals a day, transportation, and a comfy bed with space to study. Whether you're a bustling household or a quiet retreat, we believe families come in all shapes and sizes - just like our students!
Interested in learning more? Visit www.hostwithgreenheart.org to explore the joys of hosting and let us know you're ready to welcome a student into your home. We can't wait to find the perfect match for your family!
