Host Families Needed


Your family can make a difference in the world by hosting an international student. Host Families learn and experience American culture.  NACEL Open Door is looking for families, of all sizes and beliefs, who are willing to open their lives, hearts and home to an international students from one of 46 countries.   

It is simple to participate. Families provide a room to stay, which can be in a shared room with an age appropriate sibling, meals and make sure the student attends school.   Students provide money for all their expenses like school supplies, school fees, clothing, medical needs and entertainment.  Call your local representative Suzette Scheele for more information at 612-799-2469 or smscheele@comcast.net. Check out our website for more information.   www.nacelopendoor.org
