We are looking for volunteers who are interested in possibly hosting an exchange student for the Spring of 2013/2014 school year. We have students 15-18 years old from around the world that will be arriving in late December for 5 months. We need host families for these students. We have students interested in a variety of activities including scouts, swimming, youth groups, piano, guitar, violin, art, dance, music, reading, photography, skiing, tennis, golf, baseball, soccer, volleyball, martial arts, hiking/camping, basketball, choir, band, drawing and painting. With out host families, we would not be able to help these students achieve their American Dream! Host Families can consist of all make-ups such as single parent families, singles, couples with no kids, retirees, empty nesters, etc. These students make great mentors to younger children as well. Host Families provide the following to host a student: - A bed for the student (students can share a room) - Meals at home - Loving, caring, environment for the student Students come with the following: - Ability to speak English at a high school level - Complete Health Insurance - Spending money for anything they need including hygiene items, school supplies, clothes, long distance phone calls, etc) - Open mind about their American experience We have students from all over the world including: Australia, Belgium, Brazil, China, Colombia, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Mongolia, Poland, Romania, Russia, Serbia, Slovakia, Spain, Thailand, Turkey, Vietnam and many more. Your help is greatly appreciated, as we have several students to place with good host families! Exchange students can be a positive influence on your family, school, and community! If you are interested and would like more information, please contact me as soon as possible so that we can give the exciting news to the student that their American dream is going to come true!
