How to convince my parent's to host a foreign exchange student?

• So my school does a foreign exchange program. Essentially, the teens will be staying for two weeks in our home. As my brother is away at college, the foreign exchange student would be able to stay in his bedroom for the two weeks. There is no cost to my parents, they don't even have to provide transportation as the students will be going together with their teacher to explore different areas. I think this would be a lot of fun and I would get to learn more about German culture when the student came. The school desperately needs three host families for those two weeks. I am willing to clean the house for my mom, set up my brother's bedroom, etc. The problem is, however, I don't think my parents will go for this idea...
