Experience the
world without leaving your home: Southwest families are needed to host exchange
students!
Youth For
Understanding (YFU) and Southwest HS are excited to enroll foreign exchange
students next school year.
You can become a host family for a student arriving
this month! Host families provide a bed, meals, a way to get to school, plus
encouragement, love and limits. The students pay for their other expenses
and become a true family member sharing in the family’s real life, fun and
responsibilities.
All different kinds of families host successfully: large and
small, single parents and empty nesters, big or little kids, all ethnicities
and economic levels. There is strong support for students and families during
the year.
One student arriving to Minnesota is Reside from Turkey. Reside
enjoys art and reading and she is part of school government back home. She is a
YES Scholarship winner, so she has proven herself as a leader and very
motivated individual.
Will your family open your heart to Reside or another
student? Now is the time to apply as the students arrive soon.

that began over 60 years ago, is different at www.yfu-usa.org.
