It has been confirmed that 20 Japanese students will be arriving in Manitoba to stay with 4-H Manitoba Host Families from August 1 to August 15, 2025. Have you ever wondered what it would be like to make a new friend from across the globe? This is your chance! For just two short weeks (or one week if it suits you better), you can show your student what life is like in Manitoba, Canada, learn some Japanese words, and make a lifelong friend.
Check out the 4-H Manitoba York-Benimaru Foundation Homestay video to learn more about this program and what hosting involves: 4-H Manitoba Homestay Video.
