Welcome to the Central Virginia chapter of the Friendship Force International. The Friendship Force is a non-profit organization sponsoring people-to-people journeys between our clubs in over sixty nations of the world. With over 15 thousand active members, we bring people together through home-stays – creating unforgettable experiences that build lasting bonds of friendship. As an Ambassador, you share lifestyles in a private home in other countries for a week. In return, you may home host people from that nation or other nations in your home sharing your lifestyle. The ever-widening Friendship Force global network represents a powerful and growing force that can overcome differences between people and nations.

Open and welcoming all, we have been serving the Central Virginia area for over three decades. Our organization has members from all areas of the Central Virginia area as well as from all walks of life. Our primary goal is to increase our knowledge of other cultures and the best way to do this is to live in the homes of fellow members of other clubs. We travel to other countries and have the opportunity to spend a week living with a host family and experiencing their daily activities We also host members from other nations in our own homes who come to visit Central Virginia to experience our way of life.

We meet regularly to engage in interesting conversation and to hear speakers on a variety of topics. You don’t have to travel to be a part of Friendship Force. By joining one can make lasting friendships with people from all parts of the globe! We pay a small yearly membership fee to be part of Friendship Force. You are also welcome to attend any of our meetings or events as a guest. We know you will find the experience fun and interesting.
