Become A Host Family

When you become a host family for an exchange student you invite the world into your home and community. Hosting brings people from different parts of the world together to share their language, culture, and traditions. It is an opportunity to expand your horizon and discover the world without the need to travel long and far. Discover for yourself why each year, thousands of families across the United States choose to become host families for foreign exchange students.

Discover a new culture

You do not need to travel to a new country each year to discover the many cultures the world has to offer. Simply become a host family and invite the world into your home. Foreign exchange students are excited to share their food, language, and traditions with their host families, schoolmates, and everyone else they will meet along the way.
