"I don't recall working as hard or being as committed to a program as I was with this one. I think we all felt like we were ambassadors in some way to our Russian guests. The people who volunteered found that it was much more rewarding and worthwhile than we could have imagined."

- Dr. Daniel Tanita, Rotary Club of Richmond, CA

 

Home hosting is the heart and soul of the PEP experience. Friendships are forged and cultures are shared. The sponsoring club organizes a committee to recruit home hosts. Hosting is not limited to club members so PEP offers clubs a wonderful opportunity to reach out to the community at large. CCI provides advice to local organizers about how to recruit, as well as a handbook for first-time international hosts.
