ROTARY YOUTH EXCHANGE

Rotary Youth Exchange provides a world of opportunity for students and Rotarians alike. Hear from Rotarians, parents, host parents, and former Rotary Youth Exchange students from District 9640 in Australia about the value of Rotary Youth Exchange, and why Rotary clubs should just say YES to getting involved.
