What is it?

RYLA is a scholarship which trains our young people for leadership roles.

It is a week-long residential camp for ages 18 to 30.

RYLA Camp 2020

How Rotary helped

The Rotary Club of Manly's Youth Committee work with local business to find suitable participants, usually put forward by their employers.

We use some of the funds we generate to sponsor these future leaders to attend the week long camp.

The results have been outstanding and these young people have praised the program and the life-changing effect on their lives.

“Say goodbye to self-doubt when it comes to leadership!

The RYLA experience was one that I only wish I embarked on sooner.

Surrounded by supportive, like minded individuals we were able to develop, learn and embody leadership values.

The skills and qualities I learnt during RYLA will stay with me throughout my entire career."

“"The experiential, hands-on nature of RYLA provided us with countless opportunities to develop invaluable leadership qualities, such as authenticity, vulnerability, and the ability to lead by one’s principles and values.""
