International Programs seeking volunteers for Friendship Family Program

SHARE

The Office of International Programs is looking for volunteer families or individuals for the 2009 Spring International Friendship Family Program. The program seeks to promote international understanding by bringing together Fargo-Moorhead community members and NDSU’s international students.


International students are paired with individuals or families. They are introduced at an informal and fun orientation session. The families and students then will plan their own activities.


The Office of International Programs recommends a planned visit at least once a month. Activities might include dinner, birthday celebrations, picnics, outings to historical sites, sporting events and holiday observances, such as Thanksgiving or the Fourth of July.


Friendship family volunteers have no financial obligation and students do not live with their friendship families.
