NEW LOCAL COORDINATOR IN VERO BEACH, FL
Pamela Santa joins International Cultural Exchange Services
Vero Beach, FL – 7/7/2022 – International Cultural Exchange Services (ICES) welcomes Pamela Santa as a new Local Coordinator.
“I have lived in Vero Beach for the past 10 years. I enjoy living in this small town near the beach. My husband and I have hosted since 2019 and it has been a very rewarding experience. I enjoy traveling and now that everything is going back to normal we are planning to visit Europe soon! My family loves spending time together. We like to go on walks, to the theme parks, the beach and visit towns around Florida. I’m excited to work with international students because I know
it’s a unique experience, and our host kids were able to enjoy their time with us and I am hoping to be able to help more kids this school year.”
Pamela is excited for this new opportunity to work with international high school students and the local families that host them and feels that having exchange students in our local schools and communities increase mutual understanding and improves relationships between countries. Pamela will be working with families and schools in Vero Beach and in the surrounding area.
Pamela is currently looking for families that would like to host for the school year of 2022. Exchange students live as a member of the host family—not a guest or boarder. They participate in family activities, follow host family rules, and help with chores. Students have their own medical insurance and spending money to cover all personal expenses; Host families provide room & board and loving parental guidance to the student. As the Local Coordinator, Pamela is available to answer questions, give advice, and provide general support to students and host families throughout the experience. For more information about hosting or working with ICES, please contact Pamela Santa at psanta@icesusa.org.
