The Senoia Rotary Club will hear from its GRSP student, Alejandro Perona, at its meeting Monday, Nov. 14, at 6:30 p.m. at Senoia at Senoia Coffee and Café, 1 Main Street in Senoia.
Since 1946, Rotarians in Georgia have promoted world peace through understanding by offering scholarships to international students for one year of study in Georgia colleges and universities. Georgia Rotary Clubs sponsor students recommended by a Rotary Club in their home country. The students become adopted members of a Georgia “host family,” living on-campus at the school they attend. This is a scholarship program, not an exchange.
Each year, about 60 students from all over the world make friends in the United States and other nations and learn about differing cultures and lifestyles.
Alejandro Perona has been in Georgia three months and came from Spain. The Rotary Club of Senoia shares him with the Rotary Clubs of Atlanta West End, Atlanta Airport and Newnan.
In addition, this meeting will be CART Night (Coins for Alzheimer’s Research Trust) and the blue buckets will be out.
