A strong investment in Rotaract will benefit your club. Starting or sustaining university- and community-based clubs, mentoring Rotaract leaders, and partnering for projects all allow more students and young professionals to discover Rotary. Learn how to make Rotaract a vibrant part of the “Rotary ecology” in your community and build an “on-ramp” to Rotary clubs by developing responsibility, a commitment to service, and leadership qualities in Rotaractors. Co-Facilitators: David M. Postic, Rotaract Representative, Rotaract/Interact Committee, Rotaract Club of Norman Oklahoma, USA Florian Wackermann, Rotaract Representative, Rotaract/Interact Committee, Rotaract Club of Germering, Germany
