Ambassadors of Goodwill
The Rotary Foundation Ambassadorial Scholarships
Program is currently the world's largest, privately funded international
scholarships program.
The Ambassadorial Scholarships Program supports
the mission of The Rotary Foundation to further international
understanding and world peace by:
- Increasing awareness of and respect for cultural differences
by sending Ambassadors of Goodwill to study in another country.
- Instilling in scholars the Rotary ideal of "Service Above
Self" through active participation in Rotary service projects.
- Encouraging scholars to dedicate their personal and professional
lives to improving the quality of life for the people of their
home communities and countries.
- Developing leaders who can address the humanitarian need of
the world community.
- Impacting all areas of the world through a balanced geographical
distribution of scholars; and
- Fostering a lifelong association between Rotary and its scholars.
During the study period, scholars are expected to
be outstanding ambassadors of goodwill to the people of the host
country through appearances before Rotary clubs and districts,
schools, civic organizations, and other forums. After study has
been completed, scholars share their experiences with the people
of their home countries and with the local Rotarians who sponsored
their scholarships.
