We are looking for students, 15-18 in our district (5040) who would like to participate in our pilot Virtual Youth Exchange taking place in October 2021 with Brazil and beyond.
As you are most likely aware, traditional exchanges have been cancelled until June 2022 due to the COVID19 Pandemic.
The Brazilian/Canada VEP will have 16 students, 8 from each district, taking place on the weekends. The students will learn about language, sports, cultural, food, language, and so much more!
This is a wonderful opportunity for youth to participate in a cultural exchange, while remaining safe, attending their own school, and for clubs that are challenged with home hosting or the expense of a long term exchange.
Students and their parents will be provided training and orientation by the Youth Exchange Committee Rotarians.
For lots more information please check out our website d5040youthexchange.ca or our Facebook Page Rotary District 5040 Youth Exchange for information on all our programs, or email me at suegodey@telus.net and I'd be happy to discuss with you. Deadline for the Brazilian Pilot exchange is August 16th!
