Looking for a programme that will pay for transportation from Russia to the US, sponsor her, and allow her to either work at a summer camp in a major city, work with a family as a volunteer, or do immersion Engllish study and live with a local family who wants to learn about Russian culture.

i think there's a Russian Brides site or mail order thing, other than that there's foreign exchange program where a kid from one country trades homes with the other

Try the site below - it's specifically for international students looking to work at camps in the United States. The parent company has lots of other opportunities for exchange. Good luck!

Concordia Language Villages has a Russian Language Village, Lesnoe Ozero, which accepts applicants from Russia to work to teach kids ages 8 - 18 Russian language & culture. Unfortunately, they don't pay transportation fees, and it's not in a major city (it's in Bemidji, Minnesota), but it is a paid position and food and lodging is free. Also, any of the other staff would be more than willing to help you with your English. It's a great program and a lot of fun!

There might be a program through Easter Seals, ARC, United Cerebral Palsy, Talking About Curing Autism, or Autism Speaks to briing children/teenagers from Russia here to the US to volunteer and live with families while they are volunteering time with children with exceptional needs.
