RYLA is Almost Here

Posted by Christina Harris on Apr 28, 2023

Please continue to help us with our last push for Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (RYLA).

Please donate. We have 4 students without sponsoring clubs. If you can fund one or more of these students, please contact Christina Harris. We still need additional funding for the RYLA weekend. We are asking Clubs or individual Rotarians to donate to make up our shortfall. The cost of one student is $350. If Clubs that are not sending any students were to make a donation of $350, we will cover the costs of this vitally important event. Donations of any size will be greatly appreciated. Donate via Square here.

This year’s RYLA Conference will be held from May 12-14 at the Camp Rotary in Boxford, MA. The Annual RYLA Conference offers participants an opportunity to live, work and interact together in an atmosphere of cooperation and growth. The entire cost of the program, aside from a $25 application fee provided by applicants, will be covered by the Rotary Club in your area.
