Now Seeking Host Families to Participate in International Student Exchange Experience

July 1, 2011 - PRLog -- If you’re like me & listen to what our politicians are telling us-then you already know that everyone can make a difference in the world of today!
Together, thanks to families just like your own, changes are taking place. By sharing in the life of an international student waiting to come to the USA & welcoming him or her as a member of your family, you help change the world’s opinion about the  American people, who we are & what we stand for. Remember, that what we do today-will have a GREAT impact on America & the world tomorrow!

My family & I have volunteered to host through the Center for Cultural Interchange, a not for profit organization for the past 10 years & as a result, we have had the opportunity to share our customs, culture & values, all while learning the same about other cultures. CCI is currently seeking volunteer host families, to host students from Europe, South America and Asia, & we want you!! Make that first call. Be the CHANGE AMERICA NEEDS!! You can be that special family that makes a difference in tomorrow's leaders!!

All students speak English; have medical insurance & their own spending money.
For more information about this please call Leslie Criswell at 1-318-759-7188 or email me at leslie@cci-louisiana.com.

CCI's Work & Travel program allows international university students the ability to work in the United States on a J1 Work and Travel visa during their main break from school.
