Dear Rotary World Peace Fellowships Chair:

We will soon send you application materials for 2009-10 Ambassadorial Scholarships /Rotary Grants for University Teachers, 2009-11 Rotary World Peace Fellowships, and the Rotary Peace and Conflict Program. You can expect to receive these publications directly from the RI Distribution Center in December 2007. The quantities that will be shipped to you are listed on the reverse side of this letter.  Please note that some quantities have been reduced since all publications are available for download on the RI Web Site.

A successful scholarship experience begins in the capable hands of Rotarians like you who understand the difference the selection process makes in fulfilling the goals of the program.  The Rotary Foundation Trustees encourage districts to select Ambassadorial scholars whose study fields have a strong humanitarian impact and who request to study in countries that do not host many scholars.  For information on the selection of Rotary Foundation Ambassadorial Scholars and University Teachers, please refer to the Program Guide for Rotarians (publication 012).

Every district and each country within a multi-country district may submit one candidate for the 2008-10 Rotary World Peace Fellowships competition.  We encourage your district to seek out and submit a qualified candidate for consideration. For information on the promotion of Rotary World Peace Fellowships and selection of candidates, please refer to the Rotary Centers for International Studies Program Guide for Rotarians (publication 085).

Each district may submit as many candidates for each session of the Rotary Peace and Conflict Studies Program as they deem qualified, regardless of the district funds available to sponsor the candidates.  Districts are encouraged to recruit mid- to upper-level professionals whose work could benefit strongly from the training provided by the program.  For information on the promotion of the Rotary Peace and Conflict Studies Program and selection of candidates, please refer to the Rotary Peace and Conflict Studies Program Guide for Rotarians (publication 104).

Your first responsibility as district Scholarships or Rotary World Peace Fellowships Subcommittee Chairs will be to inform the clubs in your district of the availability of the scholarships and to distribute the materials.  Please note that the deadline for TRF to receive applications for Rotary World Peace Fellowships is 1 July 2008.  The deadlines for submission of Rotary Peace and Conflict Studies Program applications fall in June and December of each year.  Please refer to the Rotary Peace and Conflict Studies Program webpage for updated deadline dates. The deadline for receiving Ambassadorial Scholarship and Rotary Grants for University Teachers applications remains 1 October 2008.

Please let us know if you have any questions.

Sincerely,

Renée Stephenson

Resource Development Senior Supervisor, Educational Programs
