Download as PPT, PDF1 like1,645 views
Rotaract is a global organization for young adults between the ages of 18-30 sponsored by Rotary clubs. The document discusses Rotaract clubs in District 4920 in Argentina, Uruguay, and Paraguay which is part of a multi-district Rotaract organization. It notes that multi-district organizations like this hold annual meetings to allow Rotaractors to exchange ideas, get inspired, and connect with others in their region. However, reporting of club and leadership information remains a challenge, which limits understanding of the full scope and impact of Rotaract activities worldwide.

- #18: 07/08/13 Of course, there are policies that ask Rotaract clubs to update twice each year. But I want to talk about something more important than policies--the power of the Rotaract movement. When we have strong, active clubs that are connected to Rotary, we show that Rotaract is a global force for good. We demonstrate that Rotaract is truly a partner in service with Rotary and that the world’s Rotaractors are essential to the global community of Rotary. You make it easier for the Rotaract and Interact Committee—and for RI staff—to advocate for innovative changes that benefit Rotaractors. You make it easier for RI to make changes that welcome Rotaractors into Rotary communities on the new website, to register for the Convention online, to access resources that were once for Rotarians only.
