About Us
Experience Multi-Cultural
|
The Reno International House serves the academic, emotional and spiritual needs of international students in Reno Nevada. The Reno International House is a business-as-mission company organized by local volunteers who enjoy welcoming international friends to the Reno-area. As a social enterprise, we work together with local groups, including charities and faith based organizations to assist immigrants with transportation, cross-cultural friendships, family, life skills, and housing. Our team has a desire to love international students in practical, everyday life. Applicants and members of the homes come from many faiths and beliefs. We desire to create a place of acceptance and diversity while displaying the hospitality found in the Bible.

The Reno International House is made up of volunteers from local organizations, churches, and housing providers to assist international students and new immigrants in the Reno-Sparks, Lake Tahoe and Northern Nevada region with safe, affordable and achievable housing. We also advocate for greater housing availability for immigrants and refugees.
