International Friendship
is a non-profit organization that exists
to befriend and assist international students, scholars and their
families during their transition and stay in America.
We seek to promote mutual
understanding through cultural exchange and dialogue while providing
services that benefit the future leaders of countries from over 100
different nations around the globe. Because of the global influence of
IF, our relationships with associations and affiliations enable us to
have a network that connects us with organizations at over 500
universities in America, Asia & Europe.
We believe
cultural exchange is essential for a successful world and a successful
America. Meaningful dialogue and communication are vital components of a
positive experience in America and for success in the academic and
professional world.
IF’s English
teachers are certified ESL instructors and University linguistics
students. Most of our volunteers have traveled to many other countries
and are able to assist internationals in a multitude of practical ways.
Special events include experiencing and understanding American holidays
such as Thanksgiving and Christmas, as well as trips to experience the
variety of natural resources in the state of Florida and throughout
America.
