International 4-H

2013 Polish 4-H Exchange

Expand the ‘and My World’ part of the 4-H pledge...2013 is the year Indiana will host youth and adult volunteers as part of the 4-H Polish Exchange.  This is an excellent opportunity for young people to participate in a 4-H global exchange and learn about another culture. Specific dates are not yet firm but will likely be in early June.  We are in need of host families for both youth and adults.  Youth are matched with a host family having a son or daughter of the same gender and close in age.  Polish 4-H members all speak some English.  There will also be Polish adult volunteers needing host families.  Their English language skills vary, but most are 4-H leaders or teachers.
