Enrich your family and change a young person's life by becoming a Welcome Family! π«
Host an international student upon their arrival for 6β8 weeks while we work to secure a long-term home for the student in the same community, supported by the ISE's network across the USA!
Have you ever thought of opening your home and your heart to an international student for a short period? π‘
Not only can you make a significant impact on a young person's life, but it could also be the best thing you'll ever do for yourself and your family!
As a Welcome Family, you'll witness the excitement of a young student experiencing American culture for the first time and, in turn, broaden your own horizons.
Embrace a new culture without leaving home and make their dreams come true! π
Contact us to become a Welcome Family and provide a warm and supportive home for an international student during their first weeks in the USA.
Open your doors to the world and create memories that will last a lifetime!
Here's how hosting works:
βΆ The exchange student lives as a member of your family (not a guest or boarder), participates in family life, and attends the local high school
βΆ Students come with medical insurance and spending money to cover personal expenses like school fees, phone, clothing, etc.
βΆ Host families provide room & board and loving parental guidance (and are eligible for a tax deduction)
βΆ A Local Coordinator will provide support and assistance to you and your student throughout the hosting experience
βΆ You select the student you want to host. We will gladly help you find a student. You can meet our students beforehand and browse for them by country, age, gender, religion, or interests.
Sounds interesting?
β We'd love to talk with you!
