International students host fellowship

The East Texas Chapter of Aspect Foundation is hosting an International Open House for the public on Tuesday, Nov. 14 at the Troup Library from 6-8 p.m. Aspect Foundation encourages the community to help reach their goal of developing cultural diversity and world peace.

"We would love for you to stop in and meet some of our young Ambassadors from Denmark, Norway, Germany, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Lebanon, Jordan, Thailand, Sweden and many

more places around the world," said Stacey Henson, regional manager of the Aspect Foundation. "You can learn about another country and culture without leaving your own comfort zone."

Several exchange students attending East Texas schools will be on hand to share refreshments and some delightful stories from their home countries.

Aspect Foundation is a nonprofit educational exchange organization seeking host families for international high school

exchange students who want to fulfill their dreams and attend an East Texas-area high school for the upcoming school year.

Aspect Foundation is currently seeking volunteer host families for international high school students from over 30 different countries who want to experience the American way of life.
