Become a Host for Thanksgiving at Home 2025

The Office of International Students & Scholars (OISS) is bringing back a cherished tradition, Thanksgiving at Home, this November. Over the years, they have matched over 200 American hosts and over 600 international Yalies for Thanksgiving. This tradition is a unique opportunity of intercultural exchange and community engagement. This year Yale’s international community has seen numerous challenges on multiple fronts, and we believe that there’s no better time than this Thanksgiving to show support and hospitality to our international Yalies. All hosts will receive the names and contact information of their guests after the matches have been made approximately one week before the holiday.
