Host Family Placement for Academic Year Students
Kansas 4-H International Exchange Programs has identified one 4-H family to host a Japanese student for the 2017-18. We have committed to host at least one more student from Japan, Korea, Eastern Europe and Eurasia. These students go to a public school as senior high student and participate in school activities. Except for the meals, lodging and transportation provided by the family, these students have funds to cover their school and personal expenses. Please contact State Coordinator Mary Kay Munson if you or a family you know might be interested in hosting next year. There is no requirement about age or gender of host siblings. They have been selected to be successful in the program. Families can select from students available through States’ 4-H International Exchange Programs nationally.
A flyer on the Academic Year Exchange (AYP) options is posted on the Kansas 4-H Exchange Hosting page: http://www.kansas4-h.org/events-activities/global-citizenship/host-family-information/index.html. Mary Kay’s contact information is 785-238-3631 and munson@ksbroadband.net.
