Host a foreign exchange student | Kitsap Week


May 18, 2012 · Updated 12:04 PM 

BAINBRIDGE ISLAND — This summer, why not experience the world without leaving home?

The Northwest International Student Exchange (www.nwise.org) is looking for enthusiastic families on Bainbridge Island to volunteer to host a foreign exchange student between the ages of 14 and 16.

The students will either be from France, June 21 to July 19; or China, July 13 to July 31.

This is a great inter-cultural opportunity for all members of the family.  For more information, contact Robert Weschler at (206) 853-3800 or robertweschler@yahoo.com.
