Rotary Youth Exchange is the opportunity of a lifetime for the more than 8,000 students who participate each year. By sharing your own culture and embracing a new one, you help foster global understanding—and learn a great deal about yourself & your home country in the process. Hosting an exchange student can be an incredibly rewarding experience for your family, providing an international experience without leaving home. Host families provide room & board & share their lives with exchange students, involving them in the family, community, and cultural activities. Our NEW 2016-17 District 5060 Rotary youth exchange inbound students were together during the September 9-11th weekend for orientation in Penticton. Looks like a good time was had by all!
