Memorial University’s Internationalization Office is encouraging area residents to consider hosting a one, or more, international students for dinner over the holidays.

MUN says many international students feel isolated far from their homes and families, especially when their friends and roommates are spending time with loved ones.

The Holiday Hosting Program pairs international students with community hosts to join them for a holiday meal between Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve.
