Tis the season to help, host an exchange student with YFU!

For more than 60 years, YFU has been a leader in youth exchange programs exchanging over 250,000 in more than 60 countries. Each year more then 4,200 students participate. Through the exchange experience, YFU students gain skills and perspectives that help them meet the challenges and opportunities of our fast-changing global community.Host families have many different faces, and are all part of the American experience. You can be a host family whether you have children or not. If your family is open to new experiences, and willing to share your lives with and provide guidance to a fascinating teenager from a foreign land, then your family will be a great YFU host family.
