United Planet is proud to announce a discounted program fee for 2 volunteers who host international volunteers here in the US! United Planet strives to create cross-cultural understanding through volunteer work around the world. Part of this mission is completed by hosting international volunteers here in the United States. Families will be asked to host international volunteers while their son or daughter is abroad on one of our programs! Your program fee will then be determined in consideration of the room and board your family will be providing. If your family is interested in hosting an international volunteer or learning more about this option, please let us know!
