HOST FAMILIES NEEDED FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS Host families are needed for teenagers from Germany, Spain, Switzerland, the Netherland and Japan who are arriving in January and early spring to participate in the Academic Year in America program sponsored by the American Institute For Foreign Study Scholarship Foundation of Greenwich, Connecticut. The Foundation is seeking local community leaders throughout the United States who will welcome these teenagers into their homes. These English speaking young people all wish to learn more about American society by living with a family and attending a local high school. Host families can select a student by reviewing a “picture profile’’ —a photo and short description of the student’s background, personality and hobbies. The Foundation’s local coordinator then arranges for the student to be placed in a local high school and remains in close contact with tf^e family and the visiting student. Host family members participating in this intercultural experience earn scholarships of up to SBOO which are applicable to over 100 overseas study and travel programs. The American Institute For Foreign Study Scholarship Foundation is a non profit educational association which was established in 1967 to promote worldwide understanding through cross cultural exchange. The Foundation is also seeking Host Families for international students arriving next August and September to spend the full year or a semester in a local high school.
