Tampa Palms - Tampa Palms - Tilesa USA is looking for families to host exchange students in July.

The group is a local organization that partners with Tilesa Spain to offer programs for exchange students. It has a group of students ranging in age from 14-17 coming to the New Tampa area who are in need of host families.

The group needs 14 host families for dates from July 3 through July 28. Each host family will be compensated $200 to cover the extra cost of food and gas. They will also be entered into a raffle for a $700 Royal Caribbean cruise voucher.

Our organization asks that the host family provides a bed, three meals a day, transportation to the teaching site which is Liberty Middle in New Tampa and American hospitality.

The students will be in a structured program from 9a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday so they are with the host family in the evenings and on the weekends.

For more information, contact Program Manager Heidys Campbell at 813-390-6302 or Kim Coskey, National Program Director, at 813-495-3997.
