In our most recent podcast episode, we sit down with Jenny Kissinger Messner, an AFS alumna who believes that our mission is more important now than ever. Her journey from student to major donor shows the lifelong impact of student exchange. We’ll hear about her transformative year abroad in Brazil in 1970, how that experience shaped her life and family, and why she is so passionate about supporting the next generation of global citizens. 

This August, anyone can double your impact – thanks to the extraordinary generosity of Jenny and the Speedwell Foundation, every dollar given to AFS-USA will be matched up to $250,000. The donation will directly fund scholarships for students, giving them access to life-changing global experiences. 

Anyone can double their impact and donate now at afsusa.org/donate. Be sure to check out this podcast episode at afsusa.org/podcast and spread the word by sharing this social media post!
