International Exchange Opportunities for 4-H Teens and Young Alumni

A 4-H exchange program is available for youth ages 16-19 for the summer of 2010. American delegates may travel to Norway, Australia, Costa Rica, or Japan. Most countries' applications are due February 1st, so please contact the Extension Office now for more information.

4-H young alumni ages 19-30 can participate in IFYE (International 4-H Youth Exchange) programs next summer, but now is the time to start working on your application. Visit European countries, experience new cultures, and do this on the cheap! You are responsible for your airfare, but room and board are covered by the host families. If you are not yet old enough to travel, or have no desire to travel, consider hosting an IFYE from Europe in your home. Call the Extension Office for more details about hosting!
