What We Do

District 7770 sends teams of young professionals to other countries to perform needs assessments and to study their occupations in outher countries. We've accepted teams of young professionals from all over the world.

Vocational Teams

District 770 took the lead in supporting Coins for Alzheimer's Research, a cooperative Rotary program that supports research for the treatment and cure of Alzheimer's disease .

CART

Over 10,000 children have been saved through Gift of Life, a program that accepts at risk children from developing ountries and provides life-saving surgeries with Rotary funds.

Gift of Life

5 avenues of service: club, vocational, community, international, and new generational

The program sponsors several types of scholarships for undergraduate and graduate students as well as for qualified professionals pursuing vocational studies. While abroad, scholars serve as ambassadors of goodwill to the people of the host country and give presentations about their homelands to Rotary clubs and other groups. Upon returning home, scholars share with Rotarians and others the experiences that led to the greater understanding of their host countries.

Ambassadorial Scholarships

District 7770 sends South Carolina High School students between the ages of 15 and 18 on departure to live and attend high school in other countries for a year. The program is open to children of Rotarians and Non-Rotarians alike. Exchange student candidates must be outgoing, self-confident, friendly, adaptable, and adventurous, willing to learn a foreign language, with above average grades in school. District 7770 currently has 7 students studying around the world and 13 students here in South Carolina for a year.

Youth Exchange

Friendship exchange is an international exchange program for Rotary members and friends that allows participants to take turns hosting one another in their homes and clubs. Participants may travel as individuals, couples, families, or groups, and may be Rotary members or not.
