EF Foundation for Foreign Study


EF Foundation is looking for volunteer host families in Weber County and the surrounding areas. Each year EF Foundation for Foreign Study brings nearly 3,000 students to the U.S. to spend a year living as a member of a volunteer host family and attending a local high school.

By hosting an international exchange student, you can truly change the world, one person, one family, one relationship at a time. You'll bring the world into your home, and gain a new understanding of a different country and culture. And you'll make the American dream a reality for a teenager from across the globe.

American host families provide caring homes and the opportunity to become a true insider in a local community. Our host families represent the diversity of the American culture; successful families come in all shapes and sizes. Together, exchange students and host families create lasting friendships that build bridges of understanding across the globe.

EF Foundation arranges for enrollment in your local high school and prepares your foreign exchange student for the transition into American life. Throughout the year, EF Foundation provides support on the local and national levels for you and your student. You’ll have a fully trained local EF expert just around the corner to help you throughout the year, along with 24/7 support from our office in Boston.
