Become a Host Family

Our Organization would love to thank you for your interest in becoming a host family for our

International students. One of our organization’s core values is being a good global citizen and

immersing oneself in other culture and being a host family is one of the ways to do that. Being a

host family is a big responsibility. Hosting an exchange student will give you the opportunity to

learn about new cultures, create lifelong relationship and learn about someone from a different

culture. Your family will also be providing a cultural experience for the students you host. All of

our students stay in dorms, but GYSC would love to provide the students an opportunity to stay

with a host family. Unsure about commitment? Don’t worry, there are many ways to be a host

family for our organization.
