https://yfu.org/

Youth For Understanding (YFU) is a program provider offering 33 abroad programs. Programs offered include Study Abroad, Volunteer, Gap Year, and High School abroad programs in 33 countries such as Germany, Ecuador, Italy, and Netherlands.

HELP - YFU USA has been financially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic to a significant degree. The COVID-19 outbreak has blocked return travel for multiple exchange students, many still sheltering in place with their host families right now. YFU USA is committed to supporting them, yet YFU USA’s expenses to manage COVID-19 related circumstances were unforeseen and not in our budget.

YFU is the intercultural exchange program for you if you’re a U.S. high school student, a recent graduate, or a busy adult who wants to experience another part of the world. Choose from Youth Programs, Young Adult/ Gap Year or Adult Study Tours, all of which allow you to immerse yourself in another culture, learn a new language and meet like-minded individuals who all believe in our mission.
