This week’s Rotary Foundation Thought is about Group Study Exchange.

Group Study Exchange (GSE) was founded as an educational program of the Foundation in 1965. In fact, 2005-06 will mark the 40th Anniversary of GSE! As a result of this popular program, thousands of young professionals from more than 100 countries around the world have received vocational training, experienced another culture, and benefited from Rotarian hospitality around the world. This is the Rotary approach to creating an internationally minded workforce and building cross-cultural friendships. Our district recently sent a team to Mexico and is preparing to send and receive a team to/from Japan.

For so many, life would be different if it weren’t for Rotary. Create world understanding and peace with your contribution to The Rotary Foundation.

For more information on giving or program participation, contact PDG Bevin Wall District 7730 Rotary Foundation Chair at Bevin@RLI33.org .

GSE Team leaves for Japan on October 9th

Group Study Exchange (GSE)Under the leadership of DGN Lee Dixon, members of our GSE team of young health care professionals are busy learning the Japanese language and about Rotary, planning their presentations, and getting ready for their journey. District GSE Outbound Chair Beth Steelman and her counterpart in District 2690 in Japan are working closely together to plan an outstanding experience for the team. The Team begins formal language and cultural training September 27 with UNC-Wilmington’s Yoko Kano. GSE will provide a life altering experience for our young team members; and in doing so, we will do our part in creating world understanding and peace.
