We are still seeking a few host families for the students listed below and it's crunch time! Hosting is an enriching life experience and so much fun! As a host you're asked to provide a loving home and an extra plate at the table. The students are financially responsible for all personal costs. Hosting for even a few weeks would help these kids tremendously. Please call Christina at 631-790-6907 for more information!
