Friendly Exchange is looking for loving families who would be
willing to open their hearts and homes to an exchange student from Guatemala.
The students are ages 12-16. These kids will be placed in homes with students
of the same age and gender. The program’s purpose is to promote peace and
understanding by
providing a cultural exchange experience for the exchange
students and their host families. This experience will foster a deeper
understanding and
appreciation for other cultures, customs and way of living.

be a meeting will be held at Prior Lake City Hall, Monday August 31st, evening
at 7pm. The group arrives September 25th. Let us know if you are

The program is an 11 week program. Students arrive September
25th and depart December 12th. The exchange students attend school with their
host
siblings. The students fund their own experience. All that is
asked of host families is to provide room and board and to accept and love
the exchange
student as one of their own. Many tremendous lifelong
friendships have been formed through this program.
