Make the world your home. About Rotary Youth Exchange:
What an exciting adventure awaits as you, a potential Rotary Exchange student or program volunteer, look to expand your horizons as they've never been expanded before. Take the first step toward one of the most amazing, memorable, adventurous experiences of your life. Join the thousand of teens around the globe that participate in Rotary Youth Exchqnge programs.
As a Long-term Rotary Youth Exchange student, you will attend High School on a cultural exchange and live with several host families in a country other than your own. Not only will you learn a new language; you will learn a new way of living - and a great deal about yourself. But there's more. While you're busy learning, the people you meet will be learning too - about your country, your culture, and your ideas. You will be a young ambassador. You will be helping to bring the world closer together - and you'll be making some good friends in the process. Explore our site if you're ready for the challenge - and the rewards - of living in another land as an exchange student.
As Host family members and Rotary volunteers you can learn about the student's country, culture, and ideas. Youth exchange students are true ambassadors, helping to bring the world closer together and making good friends in the process. Please join us in this effort. See Call for Volunteer presentation about how you can help.
Not sure that a year away is for you? The Short-term Youth Exchange program may be the answer. Spend the summer with a student from another country. Live abroad for at least three weeks (usually during the summer) with a family including the teenager you have been matched with (your exchange twin) and then be the host for at least three weeks in your home and with your family and friends.
