Help Bring a Foreign Exchange Student to Your Community

How would you like a cultural experience without leaving home?  Youth For Understanding - YFU USA is looking for host families in your community. If you, or anyone you know may be interested in welcoming a foreign exchange student into their home, please pass along this information to them!

Families provide a bed, 3 daily meals, and share their lives with the student.  The students have health insurance and bring their own spending money. Hosting can be one of the most rewarding, fun, and enriching experiences your family can have.  For more information contact Leah Jardine at ljardine@yfu.org, or by calling 866-493-8872 ext 7230. You can visit our website at www.yfu-usa.org to learn about scholarships to study abroad, to complete an online application for hosting & get involved in local volunteer opportunities.

Usually I'd start with how teachers should be paid in line with their students grades, but for nowRead More I'll just suggest going to the .99 cent stores. You can get everything from 100 packs of #2 pencils to college ruled notebooks and binders, to pens and highlighters. We go there weekly and send boxes of school supplies, crayons and coloring books to our troops in Afghanistan to help them befriend the locals. The biggest score is cans of party string that usually go for $5. They spray it into a room and the streamers will hang on any tripwires without setting off the bomb. And try asking the store manager if corporate might be willing to throw in 2 for the price of one or a bakers dozen on highly stocked items if you can get several other teaches to also shop there. It never hurts to ask.
