Are you, or do you know any young professionals or college students who would like to get involved in local community service or international humanitarian projects?
Would they welcome the chance to expand their circle of friends locally and around the world?
The Rotary Club of Buffalo is assisting the Buffalo Sunrise Rotary Club to sponsor the formation of a community-based Rotaract Club in the Buffalo area.
So, what is a Rotaract Club? Rotaract is an international program for adults ages 18 to 30 who want to make a difference. It was founded in 1968 by Rotary International (www.rotary.org), an association of clubs made up of service-minded business and professional leaders. Today, there are more than 7,000 Rotaract clubs with some 170,000 members in over 160 countries.
Rotaract clubs enable members to grow personally and professionally, address community needs, and promote international understanding through friendship and service.
Rotaract clubs hold meetings, usually every two weeks, which feature speakers, discussions, and visits to other clubs. Rotaract members also get together for service projects, social activities, and leadership workshops. You can find out more about Rotaract at www.rotaract.org
