Have you ever wanted to host an exchange student?

Desperate need for 5 families to host 2 boys who are coming in from Japan late on the night of the 22nd and leaving early in the morning of the 28th. They will be integrated with your family and during the weekdays will shadow high schoolers and do other fun activities with their peers. We are having a really difficult time placing the following:

2 male teachers in Amherst
10 male students in Deerfield (if you live in Amherst transportation will be done so you don't have to drive to Deerfield everyday!)
2 female teachers in Deerfield (same as above)

Stipend is $40/day plus they bring their own money for other expenses.
We're down to the wire- can anyone help from our Amherst community or does anyone know anyone in Deerfield or that area who could help?  Thanks to those of you who are hosting already. It will be a great time for everyone involved!
