Friendship Exchange

The Rotary Friendship Exchange program gives Rotarians (including spouse, significant other or one family member) the opportunity to host and visit Rotarians around the world. In addition to experiencing other cultures and making lasting friendships, an exchange provides a strong foundation for carrying out other international activities and service projects.

The primary goal of a Friendship Exchange is to build greater international understanding and goodwill. In addition, exchange participants can learn how their vocations are practiced in other parts of the world, observe new customs and cultures, and promote an appreciation of cultural diversity worldwide.

District Powerpoint concerning Friendship Exchange can be found here: District RFE Powerpoint

District Policy concerning Friendship Exchange can be found in the District Leadership Plan. Of particular note; the policy favors first time RFE'ers in cases where trips are oversubscribed.

Your very own Rotary District 6250 is known for having the most robust Rotary Friendship Exchange Program in North American… take advantage of these once in a lifetime opportunities!
