Here is a message from EF Educational Homestay:

Host Families Needed to Host an Exchange Student from either France, Italy, Germany, Mainland China or Hong Kong. They will be coming to Mailbu, Santa Monica, Mar Vista, Pacific Palisades and the San Fernando Valley on July 24th - Aug. 12th. It is a short 18 day program and the students will be busy all day and will be with host families dinner time and evening. We have different bus stops in the areas mentioned above that the families bring their student to and will pick them up around dinner time to spend time with the family and learn about our culture as well as you learning about theirs. We give 45 hours of community service hours to middle school and high school age students for families who host a student. The students all have medical insurance, spending money and all speak English.. We will be at the Malibu Farmers' Market on May 5th, May 19th and June 2nd recruiting host families. Hope to see you there. If you would like more information please call Ralph Nicoletti at 805-529-5742 or email at ralphrose1995@gmail.com.
