The company we use for foreign exchange students sent me the following message. If you are interested please reach out to Brenda.

Didn’t know if you might know anyone who could host this girl for the rest of the year. She cannot live with dogs and cats in the home as she is allergic. She is 5’11”and is a high level club basketball player. She has to be moved immediately as she is temporarily living with local coordinator.
