The worldwide YFU community depends on the efforts and support of over 12,000 active volunteers. These professionally trained volunteers are involved in all aspects of YFU programs – student and host family selection and placement, preparation, orientation, school enrollment, on-program special activities as well as support during the exchange. All YFU host families are volunteers too and open their homes and family life without receiving any financial compensation.



If you are interested in an opportunity to volunteer with YFU, click the map link on this page to contact the local YFU office in your home country for more information. Whether you are a YFU alumnus, host family, educator or simply someone interested in making a difference in the lives of teens and families around the world and gaining new skills yourself, let your YFU organization know.
