Housing Needed for Two-Week Chinese Exchange Students
BFA Fairfax is excited to participate in the 6th annual Chinese Cultural Exchange Camp. This two-week program offers English language immersion for Chinese students and an amazing cultural education opportunity for BFA students and families.
In order to make this program possible BFA must secure host families for approximately 30 Chinese students and two Chinese teachers. The commitment is simple: house two students for two weeks, and receive a stipend of $200 per student to help with expenses. These students are in school weekdays from 8-5:00.
The two-week exchange will take place from July 19-31. Transportation is available. Don’t have an extra bed-one can be provided! Have a previous engagement during the exchange-we can help find a temporary housing while you are away! We are happy to accommodate your needs.
If you are even a little bit intrigued, please take that next step to ask any questions. We have many families that have hosted in the past and would be happy to share their experiences, too.
You will be surprised how much of a difference this opportunity makes in the lives of the students and families with a simple exchange of culture, ideas and friendship.
