ELPC members Stephen and Travis Simpson-Hunt are local coordinators for Foreign Links Around the Globe (FLAG), a non-profit international exchange organization providing experiences that transform the lives of high school students. This year, they will be hosting Nándor, a 15 year old boy from Hungary and would love to have other ELPC members serve as host parent(s)/families alongside them for the upcoming 2021–2022 school year.
Many students were unable to participate last year due to COVID-19 and so there is an increased demand for host families this year. For some students, this year will be their only opportunity to participate before they “age-out” of the program. FLAG prides itself on being small by design and offering local support to both the student and host family. Stephen and Travis will serve as your local support throughout the entire process.
If you are interested in hosting or learning more about the program, please call 412.852.2245 or email ssimpson-hunt@flag-intl.org. More information and FAQs can be found at www.flag-intl.org.
