ROTARY Youth Exchange
Bring the “international” in RI to your club and community!  Rotary Youth Exchange is the opportunity of a lifetime for the more than 8,000 students who participate each year. By sponsoring or hosting a Youth Exchange student, your club shares your own culture and embraces a new one.  Your club can help foster global understanding and peace.
 
What is a Rotary Youth Exchange?
Youth Exchange is a study-abroad opportunity for young people who spend anywhere from a few weeks to a full year as an international student hosted by local Rotary clubs.
Exchanges are for students ages 15–18 who:  Have demonstrated leadership in their school and community, Are flexible and willing to try new things, Are open to cultural differences, Can serve as an ambassador for their own country.
