Rotary Youth Exchange (YEX)
For over 75 years, students and host families have broadened their horizons through Rotary’s long-term and short-term Youth Exchange Programs. More than 80 countries and over 8,000 students each year participate in the program, which is administered at the regional level by Rotary districts and at the local level by Rotary clubs.
As a Rotary Youth Exchange student, you’ll spend up to a year living with a few host families and attending school in a different country. Whether you participate in Rotary’s long-term or short-term Youth Exchange programs, you’ll learn a new way of living, a great deal about yourself, and maybe even a new language. You’ll also be an ambassador, teaching people you meet about your country, culture, and ideas. You can help bring the world closer – and make some good friends in the process.
It’s the opportunity of a lifetime. Are you ready for it?
Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (RYLA)
Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (RYLA) is an intensive leadership experience organized by Rotary clubs and districts where you develop your skills as a leader while having fun and making connections.
Since 1985, District 5100 has led one of the premier RYLA programs in the country. Our district’s program differs from others due to us awarding these scholarships to 19-32 year olds, as opposed to high school aged youth. Our program also takes place over a whole week at the beautiful Menucha Retreat Center in Corbett, Oregon. It is a week of intensive leadership training that has jump started the Rotary careers of many participants
