Today, I am pleased to share with our volunteers exciting news about our study abroad programs and fundraising.
Please consider welcoming one or more of these students into your home for a few weeks while a permanent family can be found.
President and CEO of AFS-USA, Tara Hofmann, shares her gratitude towards host families and their contributions.
Your service to AFS-USA is our greatest resource. I need to talk with you about your invaluable contributions and share an important direction we need to take.
I am writing to share a few updates, notably related to hosting plans for NH23 and several staffing adjustments. I want to stress at the outset that these plans and adjustments have been formulated with a view to how we can better support volunteers and host families.
The news today has been difficult to watch and all of us involved with AFS hope to see peace restored through non-violent means. This message was sent today to the parents/guardians of all US students currently hosted in Europe.
