Rotary Youth Exchange Youth Exchange
Mark Your Calendars - Former Rotary Exchange Student Ryan Bradbury will be Speaker at Rotary Club of Fonthill on Nov 12, 2025
 
Come and meet one of the co-authors of this exciting new book about the Rotary Youth Exchange Experience!
 
"When we look back on our lives, we won't think about how we could've worked more. We'll think about the friends we made, the places we travelled, and the unique experiences that we had.
 
The Rotary Youth Exchange changed our lives, and truly allowed us to learn so much about ourselves. In fact, we were so inspired by what we had learned while on exchange in another country, that we decided to write a book to show everyone how it affected us.
 
To do so, we reached out to 50+ of our friends, host parents, and acquaintances that we made along the way, to get their perspective on the exchange. Hopefully, by writing a book where we recount our experiences, as well as experiences of others, we can give the Rotary Youth Exchange the promotion that it deserves.
 
We're ecstatic to share our stories with everyone, and we hope that you can be inspired to take the next step towards the greatest year of your life..."
