Four New Faces on the Fourth AN EVENT ON THIS 4TH OF JULY… Tell 4 new faces about hosting an AFS student while you celebrate the 4th of July! On Independence Day we celebrate the ideals that make this country great: freedom, diversity, intercultural understanding, and peace. When a family hosts a foreign exchange student, they actively promote these ideals every day. This holiday weekend, at your barbecues, picnics, parades, community events, and places of worship, offer hosting opportunities to new faces. As of right now, we have placed 322 of our 582 students in The West, a testament to the amazing job you are doing! By July 22nd, we need to have placed the remaining 260 students. We all need to find people who are willing to host for any amount of time: a week, a semester, or a year. This Fourth of July, Western Region volunteers will mobilize and spread the word to four new people about hosting with AFS. Please commit to:
Let’s find families for these remaining students and promote the values we celebrate on July 4th! Happy Independence Day! Sincerely, The Western States Hosting Team |
