EXCHANGE STUDENTS FROM SPAIN NEED HOST FAMILIES

Host families are needed in our community for student's visiting from Spain this summer. The 25 student's ranging in age from 13 to 18, will arrive on June 30, 2014 and depart on July 28, 2014. They are coming through an organization by the name of EMY which is located in the Northern part of Spain. To date 17 student's still need host families to stay with while they absorb the American Culture. The student's will participate in three excursions each week from historical cultural and entertainment sites including Alcatraz, I Fly, Great America an Oakland A's Game, etc. AllΒ of the excursion's are paid for by the program as well as all of their ground transportation to and from the excursions. The student's come with their own spending money and with full insurance. All of the student's have studied English and are coming to experience the American lifestyle as well as to improve on their English. Host families are asked to provide the student with a bed as well as the cultural exchange. If you can not travel the world this summer, consider letting the world come to you! If you would like to participate in this wonderful, cultural experience are get more information, please call Jan Garcia at 510-749-7061 or email her at garciapuccini@aol.com
