Role Description

We are a thriving international education organization supporting students from 30+ countries. We’re seeking caring, reliable host families to join our community as:

• Full‑Time Hosts (5–10 months)
• Short‑Term Hosts (1–6 weeks)
• Back‑Up Hosts (a few days to a few weeks)

Host Families provide a safe, welcoming home and help students adjust to life in the U.S., build confidence, and reach their potential. This is a cultural‑exchange opportunity—not traditional employment.

Qualifications

• Be 25+ and provide an English‑speaking home
• Offer nutritious meals
• Provide a private or shared bedroom
• Maintain a safe, stable, caring environment
• Ensure transportation to school (bus, bike, walk, or drop‑off)

Requirements

• Families set clear expectations around meals, guests, curfew, electronics, chores, and routines to help students feel secure and supported.

Benefits

• Dedicated coordinator with monthly check‑ins
• 24/7 emergency support
• Back‑up host families for vacations or emergencies
• Strong partnership with local schools
• $1100/month (shared room)
• $1500/month (private room)
• Direct deposit provided

While families receive a stipend, the heart of hosting is cultural exchange—sharing daily life, building connections, and supporting a young person’s journey.
