Think about the last conversation you had with someone face-to-face and what you were able to take from that conversation. Hopefully it was not just information as one would do via text or email, rather a feeling or feelings should be connected to that conversation. Maybe you felt revived, elated, excited, energetic, curious for more, or various other emotions. That is what hosting is all about. It is about the feelings that one obtains by spending great quality time with someone from another country.

If a family is able to open their doors to a student, provide the student with adequate living space, assist them in being a part of the local high school, and willing to make sure that their basic needs are met on a daily basis; then they are a family that should join such a great organization as CCI Greenheart.
