Pacific Intercultural Exchange
We currently have 16 students that are assigned to N. Florida and S. Georgia who are in need of loving families to extend their home to a foreign exchange student for the 2010-2011 school year.
They come from countries such as: Ukraine, Russia, Germany, Korea, China, Venezuela and Morocco. Some are on scholarship. These students have many interests including competitive sports, arts and music. They are students of good standing and speak English.
I am a teacher and host family member and I can attest that having an exchange student in my home was so valuable to my children. They learned a wealth of information and lifelong friends. We have visited the countries that our exchange students hare from and the overall experience has been incredible.
Pacific Intercultural Exchange is a non-profit organization that works with the U.S. Department of State to placed high school students from around the world in U.S. homes/schools for one school year to promote democracy and cultural understanding.
