SHARE! Your Heart & Home
with a high school exchange student

Host an international exchange student! Host families and adults are needed to host exchange students for a school year or semester. SHARE! students, boys and girls who are 15 -18 years old from countries like France, Germany, Spain, China, Brazil, Poland, Italy, Mexico, Japan, and South Korea are waiting for a family or adult(s) to choose them as their exchange student!

SHARE! students speak English, have medical insurance, and spending money for personal expenses. They will attend their host family's local high school and want to become a member of your family!

SHARE! families are diverse- traditional two-parent families (with or without children), single parents or adults, retired couples and empty-nesters all make wonderful host families!

We are particular looking for families in the following states:

  • Iowa
  • Michigan
  • Montana
  • Pennsylvania
  • North Dakota
  • South Dakota

Mission Statement

To create opportunities for greater tolerance and understanding between Americans and peoples of the world.

Description

Each year, the SHARE! High School Exchange Program selects and sponsors approximately 750 exchange students, between the ages of 15 and 18 years old, to experience life in the United States by living with Host Families and attending local public high schools for one semester or a full academic year.

The goal of ERDT is to provide opportunities for people of different cultures to come together to learn about other points of view and ways of life. We at ERDT believe that cross-cultural understanding is fundamental to developing mutual respect and tolerance between Americans and people from around the world. Our programs provide cultural experiences that foster good will, tolerance, and understanding through a positive people-to-people experience.
