Hi Missoula/Bitterroot/Arlee/Flathead area families,

I'm the local coordinator for Greenheart Exchange; still urgently looking for one final host family for one 16 yr old boy from Kumamoto, Japan for the 2026-27 high school year. Hosting is from late August - mid June (essentially the school year). Their visa is attached to their school attendance.

Sosuke is 16 yrs old and will enter as a sophomore. He loves basketball and hopes to play here in Montana. He is close with his family and has two younger brothers. He likes to watch movies with his family, do activities, play video games and board games, hike in the mountains, and also loves to read. He is so excited to come to Montana to learn about our culture, and share his own. Sosuke can be placed anywhere in Montana as the Appleseed Scholarship student.

Greenheart students come with their own spending money and health insurance; host families are expected to provide 3 meals a day, a bed/room of their own (they can share a bedroom with a host sibling of same-sex), transportation to and from school, and most importantly an open and loving home to treat them as one of their own to share their lives for a home stay. Greenheart Exchange is open and inclusive in its host families.

Please contact me, Sarah Smith, if you are interested... or even curious to hear more information: (406)270-1811. You don't have to be perfect, just open to the experience of cultural exchange and willing to share your home and life experiences with another. These Kumamoto students are selected through a rigorous process and are excited to share their Japanese culture while making connections and memories with a family here in Montana.
