Center for International Faculty and Student Services

Holiday/Home Dinner Program

The Dinner Program encourages American friends/hosts to invite one or more international students to share a special occasion, holiday meal or even just a regular meal in their home. While ongoing friendships may develop naturally as a result of an individual dinner invitation, participants in the Home Dinner Program are not required to make a commitment beyond a single dinner at the host's home.

The IFP coordinates a special Thanksgiving Home Dinner Program to introduce international students to the only true traditional American holiday-Thanksgiving. Because there is always a great interest on the part of international students to participate in a traditional Thanksgiving dinner, the IFP seeks a greater number of friends/hosts for this program.
