The Rotary Youth Exchange Committee interviewed prospective high school students to sponsor next year as Rotary Youth Exchange students on December 10th. We offered several students a sponsorship and are waiting to hear if they accept. 
When we agree to sponsor students from Iowa and Nebraska to study abroad for a year, that means we will be accepting students to come here from those same countries.
 
If your club is interested in being involved in the Rotary Youth Exchange program, one good way to start is by hosting a student in your community next year. Having a Rotary Youth Exchange student from another country is often the best way of engaging your own club and community in the program. 
 
This year we have local students studying abroad in Germany, South Korea, Spain, and South Korea, and are hosting students from each of those countries in return. 
 
If you have any questions or your club is interested in the program, please contact:
