We are seeking host families in the West Salem School district for our high school age international exchange student Aug 2026-July 2027. The exchange period is split between 3 host families so about 3 1/2 months per family. This is a life enriching experience for both the host families and the student.
"Hosting pushes us outside the regular hum-drum of daily life. We are more likely to go to activities, visit cities, museums—all fun! And we appreciate learning about the student, their culture, and language." ~2024 La Crosse WI Host Family

When Shari Laffredi was working with Viterbo University during the Ukrainian delegation's Open World visit, she made contact with a student organization called "The Sustainability Club" (Sustainability Club offers a way into environmentalism – Lumen). Since sunflowers are a significant industry in Ukraine, they plan to do a "Sunflowers for Ukraine" fundraiser. They will have a booth at the Logan High School Spring Craft Show on Saturday, March 21, where they will sell sunflower seeds, sunflower oil, sunflowers, and sunflower-themed paintings and crafts. 100% of proceeds will go to a Ukraine charity. I know we have many talented, crafty and artistic people in our club, so if anyone would like to create or donate artwork/crafts to sell at this fundraiser, your donations would be very welcome! As we get closer to the event, we will work out details for setup/takedown and manning the booth from 9am-3pm. If anyone has art/crafts to offer, can help out at the booth on 3/21, or has questions, please contact Shari at slaffredi@yahoo.com or 262-488-0021. More info to come. Thank you!
