Becoming a Host Family
Opening Your Heart and Home
Are you interested in learning about another culture? customs or language? By becoming a host family to a Rotary Youth Exchange Student for 3 to 5 months your family will have a memorable cross-cultural experience.
The Rotary Youth Exchange Program works because of families who are willing to open their homes and hearts to students.
Host families come in many forms being, small or big, with many children or none. You can be retired or working and host a student. We want our students to have a full experience living with families that are carrying on with the daily routine of life. Preparing meals together, commuting to school and work, and visiting extended family are all part of the experience.
If you wish to learn more about becoming a host family please reach out to your local Rotary Club or our District Committee.
