A gathering place for women of all ages, from all nations.
Friendship International is a gift of Christian love from our volunteers to international women living in the Central Kentucky area. The purpose of Friendship International is to help make the adjustment to the American way of life easier, to provide activities of interest, and to facilitate building cross-cultural friendships.
