Urgent call for a host family for a Czech FLEX scholarship winner 👀

🏡 Please, help us to find a host family for an amazing Czech student. Ondrej is among 14 Czech high school students who earned a highly competitive Future Leaders Exchange, or FLEX Program, scholarship fully funded by the US Department of State.

🧑‍🦰 He is a 17-year-old high school student from Moravia, an eastern part of the Czech Republic. His mother is a kindergarten principal and his father is an army officer. Ondrej is a curious young man; his hobbies include photography, motorcycle riding, and cooking. Ondrej is allergic to gluten so he can prepare gluten-free meals.

Requirements:
☑️ Based on the J1 visa regulations, host families are volunteers who provide room and board to the student (three meals a day, a bed that can be in a shared room with a host sibling).

🌎 For placement, Ondrej has been assigned to the Western Region which includes Arizona, California, New Mexico, Idaho, Utah, Alaska, Washington, Hawaii, Colorado, Oregon, Montana, Wyoming, and Nevada. Other states are an option, too.

If Ondrej does not have a host family by September 3 ❗️, he will lose his scholarship. Families interested in hosting can apply through this form 👉 https://www.discoverflex.org/apply-to-host

Any questions can be sent to [email protected] 📨

Thank you 🙏

Czech President Petr Pavel: "The second day of the NATO Summit
brought a clear response to Russian aggression in Ukraine. Ukraine can only prevail with our help, and that is why today all countries except Hungary pledged their continued support for the invaded country. At the same time, we are deepening our cooperation with our Indo-Pacific partners, Australia, New Zealand, South Korea and Japan, with whom we share the same values but also the same responsibility for global security. The two-day meeting moved us significantly forward in making our defense capabilities more effective, the Alliance more resilient and in helping Ukraine on its path to peace and full NATO membership."
