Testimonies from our old families
Seeing them grow up
“What a wonderful experience it is to see them gain confidence and, one by one, become adults. It gives us so much pleasure to visit them in their home countries or to welcome them back here.”
Stéphanie
To know and appreciate better
“Open-mindedness on both sides has given us the opportunity to better understand and appreciate what we owe to other cultures and to grasp the diversity of their contributions, their uniqueness, their complementarity, and their solidarity.”
Daniel, Joanne, Cynthia, and Stéphanie
Building international friendships
“We had the privilege of welcoming a wonderful person who adapted to our lives and shared her own with us. We now long to visit her hometown! We will miss Mari every day, but she will forever remain a member of our family. She has left an indelible mark on us.”
Girard-Leprévost Family, Sorel-Tracy
Discover a new culture
“This is an opportunity to allow young people to discover the world, but also to give family members the chance to discover another culture and our own, through the eyes of a young person exploring it.”
Isabelle
Share and enrich yourself
“What a wonderful experience of sharing we had: sharing our daily lives, our family moments, our activities, our respective habits, sharing our joys and sorrows. These shared experiences helped us grow and enrich us in so many ways.”
Girard-Leprévost Family, Sorel-Tracy
Getting to know the world
“While our primary goal is to provide young people with a rich intercultural experience, we realize with each passing day how much their presence allows us, as host parents, to experience the world more personally.”
Nathalie
