Perhaps it is partly my fault that there isn't much information available bout host parents scheme.. So this just explains, in my own words what it is yeah.. Direct your friends here should they want more info..
The Host Parents Scheme is basically an initiative by the Parent Action Team of ACJC to care for the foreign scholars.. Being like newcomers to the country, the host parents are actually there to support us should we be needing any help.. They may also occasionally bring us out, invite us to their homes or any other activity to get to know us better, but this is all the initiative of the individual host parents.. They do everything for us willingly and out of love, so really, I do not see why we should, given the opportunity, decide not to participate in one of ACJC's fantastic support system.. There really is nothing to lose but everything to gain!
So if you have not done so, do sign up with your country reps by tonight, 6 May 2007..
