Fulbright Welcome Weekend

July 29, 2022

CCWA is looking for internationally-minded host families for Fulbright scholars from around the world on July 29-31, 2022.

CCWA will be partnering with Ohio University to host 35 Fulbright graduate students in Cleveland for the weekend. All Fulbright scholars speak English and will be studying in graduate programs across the U.S. They are here in Ohio for an orientation program and will come to Cleveland to spend a fun β€œweekend in the city” with host families. Hosts will pick up their Fulbright scholar on Friday, July 29 at Lakewood Park, spend a free day exploring the city and engaging in fun cultural activities, and drop their Fulbright scholar back off at Lakewood Park on Sunday, July 31.

The program will begin with a Welcome Picnic at Lakewood Park at 6:00 pm on July 29. If you are interested in hosting a Fulbright scholar, please email Senior Program Officer Andrew Kovach at akovach@ccwa.org.
