About the event

"Twenty-five years ago, Alan and Phyllis Simpkins had a vision to create an International Living Center, a home in which people of all walks of life could come together under one roof and share their lives while exploring a diversity of cultures. The International Center, now know as the Phyllis F. Simpkins International House, has been home to approximately 2000 people from around the world. Twenty-five years later, the Simpkins' vision still holds true at the place many of us feel became our home-away-from-home."

This past August, 2018 the I-House celebrated its 40th Anniversary. Our five day event was held in San Jose. Residents from many different years and countries reunited with old friends and made new ones.

Reflecting on the 40th Anniversary Alumni Reunion

We feel so fortunate  to have been a part of the organization of the 40th Anniversary Alumni Reunion and all the fun of attending the week-long events. 

What makes the I-House special is, and always has been, the people.  We are thankful for each of you and look forward to organizing more reunions and finding ways for us to stay connected.
