The Haddonfield Japan Exchange (HJE), a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, builds cross-cultural understanding and lifelong connections by sending high school students overseas and welcoming Japanese students into Haddonfield homes in alternating years. Now in our 20th year of operation, HJE has welcomed over 200 American and Japanese students.
