Greensboro International Friends
Get matched with an American Friend or Family

The heartbeat of any culture is the home and the family. Families are the building blocks of communities and societies. Even single Americans have their home, extended family and friends to shape their lives. Your experience of American culture will not be complete without getting to know an American friend or family, spending time in an American home.

What's involved?
  • You will not live with the friend or family.
  • You will be invited regularly to spend time with them for dinners, special occasions or common interests. We encourage your American friend or family to invite you at least twice per month. You are never obligated to accept, and your American friend or family understands that your first priority is school.
  • They want to learn about other cultures, while sharing theirs with you.
  • Usually, you will make a life-long set of American friends that you can keep in touch with for many years to come.
