Volunteer Host Families Needed for Summer Cultural Exchange!

Take
a  European Stay-cation this summer by
hosting an exchange student!  Educational
Homestay Programs,
a non-profit organization, invites all interested Petaluma
residents, to become “Citizen Diplomats” and host an international high school
student from June 25th to July 21st,
2014.  Students are coming from Norway, Spain, and Italy.



Students will attend English language
and American culture lessons weekday mornings at Sonoma Academy High School in
Santa Rosa.  School-bus transportation to and from Healdsburg and Sonoma
Academy will be provided.  In the
afternoons, students are led on various fun, cultural activities to familiarize
them with the beauty and culture of our surrounding area.  Host families
are invited to join us in these activities! 



Open your home and heart with a place
at the table and an available bed.  Students speak English, come fully
insured, and bring their own spending money.  Students do not need their
own room.  EF can provide a temporary bed for a host family that has the
space, but is in need of an extra bed.  EHP
offers travel benefits for hosting.
