American families have a new window through which to see a part of the world not readily available to most. The Global Friendship Program is an amazing opportunity to connect with someone who, in spite of language and culture, is not really so different from yourself. Families may also invite students to accompany them on day trips, sightseeing in the local area, or to join in a favorite family activity. The possibilities are endless, and completely up to the family and student. If you are an American family interested in this program, please download a family application .
International students share their culture and background through discussion, music, food, art, etc.
Photos from home, a traditional meal, and the sharing of experience are all possible contributions from student to family. American families are interested in learning more about the world from someone who has actually lived there, and are interested in expanding their horizons.
