HISTORY MADE!
Long story short, as long as D5520 has been involved with the program, 99% of the time, one scholar is sent. 15 years ago, 2 were sent. This year, D5520 selected THREE (3) scholars for the $26k award or $78k invested in the international educations of these future Rotarians lives!
The experience can be summed up by a quote from selection committee member Michelle Frechette "The magic created in the last 24 hours by the commitment of this district to the potential in our youth is absolutely amazing. Riding home with one of the most excited young ladies in the district was a true pleasure. I was shocked and so pleased to hear that our leadership sat back, thought about our options and then worked outside the box of the 'usual process'. Boy, this life experience called Rotary just gets better every single day"
