Rotary International is an internationally renowned organization that spends millions of dollars in charitable projects all over the globe. In order to see that Rotary-style work is accomplished and to educate the next generation of Rotarians, the Ambassadorial Scholars are awarded. These are highly competitive among academically talented students. Those who are going overseas to the Philippines with the goal of engaging in humanitarian aid or learning about sustainable development, may qualify for up to $26,000 for the year. Rotary scholars must demonstrate strong character skills and conduct themselves according to Rotary tenets at all times. Recipients must be willing to share their Philippines trip and educational experience with a Rotary audience once back in the U.S.
