ERDT/SHARE! is looking for host families for international exchange students for the 2009/2010 fall semester or school year. The students speak English, are covered by medical insurance and have spending money for their personal expenses. Host families provide a bed, meals, friendship, understanding, and a genuine desire to share the American way of life.

SHARE! families are diverse. Traditional two-parent families (with or without children), single parents or adults, and retired couples make good host families. High school aged boys and girls from over 30 different countries will be arriving mid-August to attend local high schools for one or two semesters. Persons interested in hosting or obtaining more information can call Yvette Coffman at 1-800-941-3738 or visit www.sharesouthwest.org.
