Host families needed for new international students
George Fox is expecting 56 new international students this fall, and they start arriving on campus this week. Because of the housing crunch, we are not able to put students into campus housing as soon as they arrive. So, we are looking for families who would be willing to have two international students stay in their home.
Students will need housing the nights of Aug. 17 or 18 to Aug. 26. Families are asked to provide breakfast and dinner. Lunch will be provided on campus. We also ask families to provide transportation to George Fox between 8 and 8:30 a.m. and pick up students at approximately 5 p.m. Host families will receive a stipend to help defray some of the costs.
Please call Dianna McIntyre (ext. 2649 or dmcintyre@georgefox.edu) or Alex Pia (ext. 2643 or apia@georgefox.edu) if you are able to host some students. If you know of others who might be interested, please let us know so we may contact them.
