The Rotary Foundation is based in Evanston, Illinois but my sponsoring club is the Morning  Club of Evansville, Indiana in District 6580. Rotary brings together professionals from all walks of life does good work all over the world. They offer programs and opportunities for all ages and I was lucky enough to find out about their Ambassadorial Scholar Program. This is the program that is sponsoring my year abroad as a student and ambassadorial speaker in New Delhi, India. Please check out their website and see what they do and what opportunities are available for you.: www.rotary.org

Lora, I can tell we are in for a fantastic season of reading your travel blog! I'm amazed at the quality of the content so far. It gives a real picture of your nascent life in India. I expect you may not have as much time in the future to describe your daily activities...but so far, you make us feel as though you are right there with us! I'm off to Senegal on Sunday and running around like a chicken with my head cut off. Owen is adjusting to life with the virtual you, but he is already counting the days. Much love, Docey
