Harbortown highly encourages you to attend RYLA this summer (July 14-20)! We get great feedback from the students who attend every year, and we hope you will take advantage of this opportunity.
Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (RYLA) isn’t your average leadership camp. RYLA is designed to give high school students (high school juniors going into their senior year) hands-on active learning activities and sessions to build on their own leadership skills. Held on the University of Minnesota Crookston (UMC) campus, RYLA 5580 encourages youth to explore their own strengths and develop their own style of leadership.
There is no cost to you for attending RYLA 5580. All of the fees for each camper are sponsored by individual Rotary Clubs and all necessary supplies will be provided.
No country has greater instances of maternal death than Nigeria. In 2020, 82,000 pregnant women and new mothers died there. One contributing factor? Sixty percent of births in Nigeria take place outside of a hospital, making those women far more vulnerable if complications arise. In this issue of Rotary magazine, senior staff writer Diana Schoberg visits a Rotary Foundation Programs of Scale initiative addressing the problem head on.

April is Rotary Environmental Month, and we are highlighting the work of Rotarians and Rotaractors on climate change, regenerative agriculture, food waste, and more. In one of this month's feature stories, you can learn about the urban heat island effect and the Rotary members in sweltering Houston who are promoting more tree cover, "cool pavement," and other adaptations to turn down the temperature.
And in our "Where are they now?" column, conservation biologist and 2016 Rotary global grant scholar Gabi Fleury explains her approach to helping communities manage conflict with wildlife: She starts by listening.
