Host families are an essential source of support for international students. It entails having a student over for meals, supporting students participating in athletics, celebrating holidays with them etc. Host families do NOT provide housing for the international students.

Hosting international students provides a valuable opportunity for yourself and/or your family to experience cultures from around the globe, while simultaneously exposing students to the unique culture of Kentucky.

WWII Veteran Joe Stanley VanZant with his sister Ruth

2023-07-11 - Metcalfe County, KY - Photo from Geniece Marcum's collection
WWII Veteran Joe Stanley VanZant with his sister Ruth Garrett are in the center photo in this collection. I'd promised my mom to help her distribute keepsake family pictures to descendants we could find, and finally shared the remaining ones with the Metcalfe County Public library in Edmonton where her family is from. These will be in the genealogy section, VanZant files, when someone searches for connections in the future.
