DISTRICT 6920
YOUTH PROGRAMS
Exchange years, college scholars, leadership camps, and school clubs — the next generation of People of Action from Savannah to Valdosta.
GROW THE NEXT GENERATION
Every youth program in this District starts with a local club. Families do not apply to a website. They meet a Rotarian who will sponsor, host, or coach.
Pick the door that fits: a year abroad, a semester in Georgia, a weekend camp, or a club at school.
ROTARY YOUTH EXCHANGE
STUDY ABROAD. COME HOME CHANGED.
High school students ages 15–18 live with Rotary host families and attend school abroad for an academic year through Rotary Youth Exchange Southeast (RYESE). District 6920 students have gone to Japan, Belgium, Brazil, Spain, Italy, Germany, and more.
Applications open August 15. Estimated 2026–27 cost is about $6,000. Start with a local club, then write Dana Park, District Youth Exchange Chair — dpark@ryese.org.
