Host Families Needed – Rotary Youth Exchange

Rotary Youth Exchange Notice:

The Whitewater Rotary is currently hosting an exchange student from France at Whitewater High School this school year. A critical part of this program is finding willing host families from within the Whitewater Unified School District families. Families come in all shapes and sizes: married w/students, married/no students, retired, single and everything in-between. Rotary families host for a third of the year, depending on the need and number of host families that apply. We are seeking a 2nd host family (approximately 2nd week in Dec to 2nd week of March) and 3rd host family (approximately 2nd week in March to 3rd week of June). Your local Rotarians will meet with you to discuss the specifics.

Youth exchange helps broaden viewpoints of the events in the world and gives a student the opportunity to realize their dream of studying abroad. Rotary students are sponsored by other Rotary clubs around the world, are vetted and arrive with health insurance. They are enrolled in local schools, attend classes and are expected to attend Rotary events throughout their school year.

Contact the name listed below if you are interested in applying to become a Rotary Host family. We look forward to hearing from you!

Please contact Mark Olm, mark@olmandassociates.com if you are interested in learning more.
