Friendships International
is a host-family program jointly sponsored by the International Students & Scholars
Office (ISSO), the Intensive English and Orientation Program (IEOP) at Iowa State
University, and the Ames community through local religious and civic
organizations. We are involved in pairing international students or families
with American individuals or families living in the Ames area and interested in
building friendships across borders.
