14 young Americans and Canadians of Hungarian background have been accepted for the experience of a lifetime. You can meet them here. This year's ReConnect Hungary journey will be July 1-17. During the two week, one-of-a kind, cultural immersion program, the group will explore the country and experience Hungarian culture, traditions and history in a fun-filled, eye-opening way. They will see first-hand the trends, innovations and ingenuity driving Hungary today. Continue to follow their journey here and on Facebook, and check back soon to meet them up close and personal.

Due to large number of qualified applicants, we felt compelled to expand the number of participants for this year's trip. But this also means we need to raise more funds. So please support ReConnect Hungary 2013 however you can.
