THE FIRST YEAR EVENT WILL KICK OFF AN ANNUAL TRADITION FOR THE ORGANIZATION

YFU USA kicked off Host Family Appreciation Day 2017 by releasing a very special video of current international students thanking their American host families.  

More than 90 students submitted video clips to the organization, thanking their host family in preparation for the event.  Students were also reminded to do something nice for their host family on that day of appreciation. The results were delightful!

YFU hopes this event, occurring shortly before students’ departures to their home countries, serves as a reminder of the integral role host families play in the exchange experience. We couldn’t do it without them and they’ll never forget their new families!
