    Description

    Host a Foreign Exchange Student!

    We are in search of host families in Fountain, Widefield and Security, CO to host exchange students who are coming this August 2024! We have students available who come from all over the world: Italy, France, Spain, Germany, Vietnam, Brazil, Turkey, Paraguay and more!

    The requirements to become a volunteer host family are simple. A host family must provide:

    • 3 meals a day
    • Transportation to/from school
    • A Bedroom to sleep and study in (Students can share a room with the same gender and similar age)
    • Love and Support

    All families make great Host Families! We've had Host Families who are single moms, busy families with multiple children, same-sex couples, empty nesters, and more! Can't commit to a full school year or semester? No Problem! Consider becoming a "Welcome Family" where you host the student for a 4-8 week period, just to get the student started here. You'd be their first impression of the U.S.!

    Know anyone who'd be a great host for an exchange student? We'd LOVE to hear from you at: Recruitment@edutrav.org

    Consider opening your heart and home to an Exchange Student and experience the Magic of learning about an International culture!
