Thank you for your hard work matching our incoming exchange students with loving host families in your communities. We asked a few “Hosting Heroes” like you to share their stories. Watch this video to hear from AFS Hosting Heroes across the country!

We’d also like to remind you of some helpful hosting recruitment resources you can find on Help & Learning, including this article with easy-to-use materials for recruiting welcome families. For additional recruitment resources or support, please reach out to marketing@afsusa.org.

We hope the words of our Hosting Heroes will provide you with some inspiration as we push forward and find families for our remaining exchange students who are eager to come to the US. Thank you for all you’re doing to recruit host families during this busy time!
