CONTRIBUTE YOUR TIME, CONNECT WITH OTHERS, and CHANGE THE LIVES OF YOUNG AMERICANS

We are on a mission to transform the way young adults see themselves, their country, and their neighbors—to make free, domestic exchanges a civic rite of passage for future generations of Americans.

Why? Because our nation contains all sorts of multitudes, and that’s one of its biggest strengths. When young adults learn to appreciate the stories, traditions, and challenges of communities different from their own, they become more empathetic, curious, and civically-engaged citizens.

Hundreds of people like you make our vision of creating a more connected America possible. Get involved today and become part of the American Exchange Project movement.

Volunteer With Us

Every American Exchange Project adventure is made possible by open-hearted volunteers in each of our towns. Whether it’s dropping off a meal, taking a student to the airport, or facilitating an in-kind donation, we need your help.

Become a Host Family

Host families are integral to the exchange experience. We’re always looking for families who can welcome students into their home and show them a slice of life in their town over the summer. If that’s you, learn more or sign up below.

Donate

American Exchange Project is free for every participant because we believe nothing should get in the way of a young adult who wants to learn more about their country. Help us make these once-in-a-lifetime adventures happen by donating now.
