Community Corner

Volunteers needed

We know that today's world is a global one, and that it's exceedingly important for young people

to expand their horizons.  Even young children benefit, and love having a

big brother or sister in their home for a few weeks!

 

EF’s Educational Homestay Program, a non-profit organization, is bringing 93 students from Austria, Hong Kong and France to study English and experience the American way of life.   We are currently looking for homes for these students and we’d love for you to get involved!  

·         Students, ages 14-18, will be visiting from July  16th– August 4th, 2014

 

·         The students will be under the supervision of EF Program staff from 8:00 AM – 5:30 PM (M-F).  Students attend language classes in the morning and participate in organized educational activities and field trips in the afternoon.  Host Families may join us for activities.
