As you know, the September 3rd hosting deadline is quickly approaching, and there are still many students that are eagerly awaiting the good news that they have been matched with a host family. 

We need your help to find more welcoming and open-minded families who can host these students. We are encouraging all staff and volunteers to share this graphic on your social media platforms with the following text: 

The organization I volunteer for, AFS-USA, is looking for warm and welcoming families to host exchange students arriving this September! Hosting a student, even for just a few weeks, offers a life-changing experience for both the student and your family. Intercultural exchange programs not only enrich lives but also foster lasting connections.

Ready to make a difference? You could be THE family that changes a young person’s life, forever. Get started at afsusa.org/host or email us at hosting@afsusa.org. If you’re already hosting or unable to host, we’d greatly appreciate any referrals for potential host families here: bit.ly/NominateAFSHost. Feel free to DM me with questions!

Feel free to customize the message and utilize the platforms you prefer, but please include the graphic when sharing. Thank you for helping us find host families for our remaining students!
