| The
third annual Rosenberg & Parker Charity Sporting Clays
outing took place on October
8 at M&M Hunting Preserve in Pennsville, NJ. Over 65 shooters
participated in this event which raised approximately $10,000
for the Harry C. Rosenberg Youth Exchange Scholarship. During
the three years that this exciting event has taken place, almost
$30,000 has been raised. The scholarship is entirely need based
and will pay up to 50% of the costs associated with participation
in a Rotary Youth Exchange. If you know of a high school aged
student who could benefit from the scholarship, please email
Chad Rosenberg at chad.rosenberg@yahoo.com. |

Harry Rosenberg Rotary Youth Exchange Scholarship
Donna Henry
(r) (long standing Rotarian with Rotary club of Eastwick Airport)
serves on the Youth Exchange committee and the Youth Exchange
Program (YEP) scholarship committee. YEP hosts students and
sends them abroad for a year long school exchange. A short
term exchange program is also available. |
Rotary Youth Exchange
is a once in a lifetime opportunity for students to broaden
their education and world understanding by letting them live
with a Host Family and attend High School in a foreign country.
As a Rotary Youth Exchange Student,
you will spend an academic year (long term program), or just
four weeks (short term program) with a Host Family in a country
other than your own. You may learn a new language; you will
learn a new way of living and a great deal about yourself.
While you are learning, the people you meet will be learning
about your country, your culture and your ideas.
YOU will be helping to bring the world closer together
and making friends that last a lifetime.
Rotary Youth Exchange is open
to all high school students who are 15- 1/2 to 18 - 1/2 as
of August 1st of the year of their departure.
The program is open to all children of Rotarians and
Non-Rotarians.

District Youth Exchange Programs called Eastern
