Rotary Youth Exchange celebrates 
50 years of student exchanges!!
Rotary Youth Exchange connects cultures, inspires service, and creates friendships that last a lifetime. We give students the opportunity to spend a year in another country, another culture. And, we give local families the chance to change the lives of students by opening their hearts and their homes to an international student.
 
Whether you are a high school student wanting to live abroad for a year, or your family wants to make a difference in the life of an international student, you can be part of Rotary Youth Exchange! Your lives will never be the same! Make a change - for the better!

Ripon Rotary Club is named a ShelterBox HERO!
The Ripon Rotary Club is committed to helping when people are faced with disasters.  ShelterBox USA is one way we do that.  Our members contributed funds, so we could provide people in Ukraine, Turkey and/or Syria with a temporary place to live, tools to repair homes, or other items they might need to survive. 
 
This is a ShelterBox tent.  It can comfortably house at least six people.  When it arrives, it also has everything a family needs to survive: pots and pans, blankets, light, cooking stove and many other items!
If a family does not need a tent, but needs to repair their home, ShelterBox can provide tools and tarps to get the job done!
ShelterBox also provides things like mosquito netting and lights.  These may seem like small things to some, but to many, these are items that can make a huge difference after a disaster.
