    Description

    AFS-USA Hosts & Sends Exchange Students Around the World- You Can Volunteer and Enjoy the Fun

    AFS-USA is the leading exchange program in the world and has been successfully hosting and sending students and teachers on exchanges for (80 years) to over ninety (90) partner countries. This year is the 111th Anniversary of the American Field Service. The members were the ambulance drivers in WWI and WWII. Members of this group formed AFS as it is today. Two were actually from Tennessee.

    The Miss Tennky Area AFS Leadership Team plans to place forty+ foreign exchange students in the area for the 2025-26 school year. They will be spread throughout TN, MS, KY and Alabama. Why not bring the world to your home?

    Volunteers and host families are needed to support the Miss Tennky Area AFS Leadership Team/ You may go on line and see their mini-bios at www.afsusa.org/host and then put in your zip code. You may begin a hosting application on this website.
