Get a little Culture in your life!

Okay so here is the deal I has recently signed up and have been trained to be a Community Coordinator with Education, Travel, and Culture, or ETC. Education, Travel & Culture (ETC) is a Pacific Northwest-based non-profit organization providing international exchange opportunities for high school students.

So what I would be doing is finding host families to take in these amazing high school students from around the world and then doing follow up with the students and the families throughout the time they are here. I'm really excited to start finding host families and placing students.

Families are strictly volunteers and are only expected to provide room and bored, the students are responsible for their own personal expenses including school activity charges, class fees, clothes, travel expenses, entertainment, bus passes, long distance phone charges, and lunches purchased at school.

This organization has three different lengths of time you can have a student. 5 months for one semester, 10 months for one school year, or one Calendar year if you want a Korean student. All the students are between the ages of 15-18 and speak English fluently. You don't even have to have teenagers yourself to be a host!

ETC places students all around the country so even if you don't live in AZ you can still be a host. If you want more information or know someone who might please visit their website at http://www.edutrav.org/ or just contact me and I can tell you more and even help find the perfect student for your family!
