Global Outreach Catholic Exchange Program

Global Outreach Catholic Exchange Program is looking for Host Families for the 2018/2019 school year.
Have you ever wanted to make a difference in the life of another person, or to do something really great for someone whose life will never be the same because of you? We are looking for families to host Catholic students from East –Central Europe for the 2018/2019 school year.   These students will attend St. Mary’s Springs Academy High School. We need loving families to provide room, board, and transportation for the school year. By hosting the Global Outreach student, you will be offering a young person the chance of a lifetime. Your family will also be greatly impacted and enriched by generously opening yourselves to a Global Outreach student.

For more information, contact Barbara Tota-Boryczka, the Executive Director of the program at (920) 540-3085 or email boryczkabb@sbcglobal.net or Father Larry Seidl, the Spiritual Director of the program at (920) 412-0320 or ljseidl1949@gmail.com.  Please check our website www.globaloutreachprogram.com to learn more about our mission to build civilization of love.
