We do this by connecting with people from other countries at a personal level; by opening our homes, sharing meals, conversations and the routines of daily life .

The purpose of Friendship Force is to create understanding and respect between people of different cultures as a result of personal connections, besides being a great way to travel and see the world alongside fellow club members with similar interests.
