Growing a Future in Rotary through Rotaract
by Joe Dorman
I was honored this past summer to be tasked to create more Rotaract Clubs in our state by District Governor Mac Patel. For those who are not familiar with them, Rotaract clubs bring together people aged 18 and older to exchange ideas with leaders in the community, develop leadership and professional skills, and have fun through service, as defined on rotary.org
The site further shares that “in communities worldwide, Rotary and Rotaract members work side by side to take action through service. From big cities to rural villages, Rotaract is changing communities like yours.”
Much like Rotary clubs, Rotaract members decide how to organize and run their clubs, manage their own funds, and plan and carry out activities and service projects. To help with their success, Rotary club sponsors offer guidance and support and work with Rotaract members as partners in service. READ MORE
