STS Foundation is seeking Volunteer Host Families to host High School Exchange students that will be arriving in late July/Early August for the 2015-16 school year.
We ask host families to be at least 25 years of age, be able to offer a loving and nurturing environment, 3 meals a day, and reasonable transportation. The student can share a room with a host sibling of the same gender and close in age or can room alone but must have their own bed.
Students come with travel and Health insurance, money for incidentals such as personal items, school clothes and expenses, cell phones, trips, activities ,and spending money.
If you have "a bed in your home and love in your heart", hosting is for you.

Hosting a High School exchange student is a unique opportunity to share your way of life with an enthusiastic young person from another part of the world.
Every year students come from all over. By opening up your heart and home and hosting an exchange student, your family can make a positive difference to the life of a young person just waiting to come to the United States.
When you host an exchange student, it is a rewarding experience for the whole family. Family members will obtain a wider international perspective, make lifelong friendships and enjoy the company of an enthusiastic young person. If you have children at home, hosting an exchange student can reinforce their interest in languages, other cultures, and traveling. It can also be fun to have a new ‘sister’ or ‘brother’ around.
Families from all walks of life, with or without children, are welcome to apply.
