Join us on Sunday, September 27th
for FLEX Appreciation Day
The FLEX Alumni program invites you to celebrate FLEX Appreciation Day on September 27th through the annual Social Media Party. The campaign is an opportunity to highlight the achievements of the FLEX program and its funding & administrative organizations; to celebrate FLEX students and alumni, the host families, communities, and schools that make the exchange possible; and to say ‘Thank You!’ to those who support the program and make it a success.
Alumni and supporters around the world are welcome to join the celebration on social media by using the official hashtag #ThankYouFLEX and to take part in or organize alumni events in the community for FLEX Appreciation Day.
