Volunteers needed to welcome AUAP students to Western

Western Washington University is looking for volunteers to help welcome international students as Community Friend volunteers.

Community Friends is an opportunity for Asia University America Program students to visit the home of a Bellingham community member and learn more about American culture. For Community Friends volunteers, the time commitment is minimal; volunteers are asked to spend time with their AUAP students or have them over for a home visit at least once during the students' five-month stay. Volunteers also are asked to attend the Community Friends Gathering on Oct. 17.
