Rotaract is a global community of young adults who are dedicated to service, leadership, and professional development. Rotaract clubs bring together people, starting at 18 years of age, to exchange ideas and engage in service projects. They provide opportunities for the enhancement of knowledge and skills to develop leadership skills, and aid in personal and professional development. They also focus on finding innovative solutions to the physical and social challenges faced by communities and promoting better relationships among all people.
A Rotaract club is sponsored by a Rotary club and is a program of Rotary International, adopted by the Board in 1968. Rotary and Rotaract members collaborate globally, working side by side to take action through service and create meaningful change in communities like yours.
