Rotary International is a global community of committed professionals working
together to serve others and advance peace. More than 1.2 million members
in over 34,000 Rotary clubs worldwide volunteer in communities at home and
abroad.

About Rotaract
Rotaract is a service club for young men and women ages 18 to 30 who are

1. Get Started:
Organizing a Rotaract Club in
Three Easy Steps

Rotarians’ Role
Deciding to sponsor a Rotaract club is the beginning of a rewarding journey for
your Rotary club. Follow these three steps to get started.

Step 1: Do your research
Form a Rotaract committee to determine if your club is interested in sponsoring
a Rotaract club, and if it is prepared for the responsibilities of becoming a
sponsor club. Also, review the needs of the community and its young adults.
Your district Rotaract chair and district Rotaract representative can offer advice
and suggestions.

Step 2: Identify potential Rotaractors
Potential members are all around you! Brainstorm with your club to develop as
wide a membership pool as possible. Consider
• Current and former Rotary Youth Exchange students, Interactors, and
RYLA participants, and Rotary Foundation alumni
• Sons, daughters, and other family members of Rotarians
• Employees and interns who work with Rotarians
• Participants in young adult programs at community centers, places of
worship, health clubs, and other public venues
• Students in universities, colleges, and continuing education programs
• Members of nonprofit organizations, professional associations, and social
networking sites

For a university-based club, ask the person who has volunteered to be its faculty
adviser to suggest possible club members.

Step 3: Invite prospective members to an informational meeting
After you’ve identified at least 15 potential members, invite them to a meeting
to learn more about Rotaract. In addition to prospective Rotaractors, you’ll want
to invite
• Rotaract committee members
• Your sponsor Rotary club president
• District Rotaract chair and district Rotaract representative

1 Rotaract hanDbook

• Faculty adviser (for a university-based club)
• Rotaractors from nearby clubs who can share their experiences and
answer questions

At the meeting:
• Briefly discuss Rotary and Rotaract’s history and shared commitment to
service.
• Distribute copies of Rotary Basics and show a video from the RI website or
Rotary Video Magazine collections.
• Explain Rotaract’s policies and goals. Describe successful service projects
to show how Rotaract clubs make a difference locally and globally (see
chapter 3).
• Highlight how Rotaractors can work on service projects with young
adults in other parts of the world.
• Get potential members excited about Rotaract by asking them to suggest
club projects.
• Distribute copies of the Rotaract Promotional Card and encourage
prospective Rotaractors to invite their friends to join.
• Make time for questions.

At the end of the meeting:
• Take a vote to see if you have enough interest and commitment
to establish a Rotaract club. A minimum of 15 charter members is
recommended.
• Set a date for the first organizational meeting.

From here, the club’s progress is largely in the hands of the new Rotaractors,
but your guidance is still valuable. Read on to understand what happens in a
Rotaract club after the initial organizing phase, and how you and your Rotary
club can help a new Rotaract club succeed.

Rotaractors’ Role
After the initial organizing phase, it is up to you, the new Rotaractors, to complete
the process. Here are three easy steps to help you launch your club:

Step 1: Hold organizational meetings
Build momentum and keep enthusiasm high by scheduling organizational
meetings no more than two weeks apart. Use sign-in sheets to collect attendees’
names, phone numbers, and email addresses. Social media can help you recruit
more participants. Encourage attendees to invite their friends and colleagues to
meetings.

Before seeking certification from Rotary International, your club must:
• Hold elections for president, vice president, secretary, treasurer, and
other members of the board
• Develop a membership plan to ensure that your club includes members
of different ages and genders
• Establish annual club dues
• Determine where and when meetings will be held. Clubs must meet at
least twice a month, but are free to consider a range of options, including
meeting in person, online, or a combination of the two. Select times that
are convenient for club members.
• Begin planning service activities, fundraising events, and the inaugural
ceremony
• Help members understand the constitutional documents

Step 2: Complete organizational paperwork
Now that your prospective Rotaract club has a strong membership base, you
can apply for certification from RI. Work with your sponsor Rotary club to
accomplish the following tasks:
• Complete the Rotaract Club Certification Form
Good to Know
(see chapter 8).
Before a prospective club

back cover of the handbook for a complete list). (see chapter 8). These

approval of the sponsor
Rotary club.

3 Rotaract hanDbook

Once your Rotaract club has been certified, a process that takes about
four weeks, the sponsor Rotary club will receive your club’s Certificate of
Organization from Rotary International.

Step 3: Plan an inaugural ceremony
Chartering a Rotaract club is a meaningful and exciting event. Work with your
sponsor Rotary club to organize an inaugural ceremony. Invite Rotary district
leaders, such as the governor, Rotaract chair, and Rotaract representative. Ask
local media to cover the event to help promote your club in the community.

Inaugural ceremonies are rich in tradition. Learn how your sponsor Rotary club
celebrates its special occasions, and then develop a ceremony that blends Rotary
traditions and the new energy of your Rotaract club. Here are some other ideas
to consider for your ceremony:
• Welcome new Rotaractors into the family of Rotary.
• Briefly explain Rotary and its mission.
• Review the history of Rotaract and how the new club was formed.
• Induct members individually, and announce board members and officers.
• Present each member with a Rotaract lapel pin. (For more information on
how to obtain licensed Rotaract merchandise, see chapter 8.)
• Take photos to commemorate the event.
• Create an inaugural ceremony program book that lists club members.

What’s next?
Congratulations! As you begin planning for your first year, remember to seek out
the advice and help of your sponsoring Rotary club and refer to the resources
available through Rotary International.

Active members are the key to a successful club. A Rotaract club should provide
opportunities for networking, community and international service, professional
development, and socializing. Make sure your first year involves a variety of
activities and projects for everyone.

2. Set Your Course:
Club Administration

Strong leaders can help your Rotaract club find and retain members, raise
funds, and carry out successful projects. The club’s board of directors should be
familiar with the Rotaract constitutional documents (see chapter 8). In addition,
incoming Rotaract club officers must participate in leadership training offered
by the district.

Board of Directors
The board of directors serves as the governing body of a Rotaract club and
includes the president, immediate past president, vice president, secretary,
treasurer, and any additional officers your club decides it needs. Rotarian and
faculty advisers should regularly attend board meetings to provide guidance.
Rotary club members may also attend these meetings as observers. The board
should meet at least once a month and report any action taken at the next
club meeting.

During its meetings, the board reviews and approves the club’s plans and service
projects, ensures the club’s financial solvency, and delegates responsibilities.
At the end of the Rotary year, the board prepares a final report that describes the
major actions taken over the preceding 12 months. A copy of the report should
be sent to the sponsor Rotary club.

Update Your Club Information
Every six months, the Rotaract president is required to update club
information and membership data with RI through Member Access
at www.rotary.org/memberaccess. This online process lets RI know
that your club is active, confirms that your contact information is
listed correctly in the Worldwide Rotaract Directory, and ensures
that your club is kept up-to-date about Rotaract, preconvention
activities, and resources.

Clubs that fail to update club information and membership data over a
two-year period will be terminated.

5 Rotaract hanDbook

President
The president’s primary role is to ensure that the club’s professional and
leadership development activities are successful and that its service projects
benefit the community.

Responsibilities include:
• Conducting effective club meetings with detailed agendas that allow
enough time for reports from officers and committee members
• Chairing meetings of the board of directors
• Appointing all standing and special committees, with board approval,
and serving as an ex officio member of all committees
• Appointing committee chairs based on individuals’ experience, and
seeking their opinions about committee members
• Delegating responsibilities to help members develop their leadership
skills for future club leadership roles
• Encouraging club members to get involved in projects by building on
their skills and interests
• Ensuring that club activities and service projects are successfully
promoted and executed
• Monitoring membership to maintain an age and gender balance
• Communicating and collaborating with the Rotarian adviser, Rotary club
members, and district Rotaract officers. In university-based clubs, the
president should also consult with the faculty adviser.
• Updating club information and membership data every six months
through Member Access

Vice president
The vice president’s primary role is to support the president. Some clubs may
choose to have the incoming president serve as vice president.

• Presiding over meetings in the president’s absence
• Serving on the board of directors and as an ex officio member of all
committees
• Handling special assignments as directed by the president
• Staying current on club goals and activities
• Succeeding to the office of president in the event of a vacancy

6 Rotaract hanDbook

Secretary
The secretary’s primary responsibility is to help the club function efficiently.
The secretary should be well organized and have good communication skills.

• Maintaining all club records, including membership, committee
appointments, attendance, dues payments, and important club
documents such as the club’s certificate of organization, budgets, and
reports
• Notifying the sponsor Rotary club of club members who are turning 30,
to help it identify potential Rotarians
• Providing club and member information to the president for regular
updates to RI
• Taking minutes — a clear, concise written record of meeting discussion
and actions — at all club meetings. Minutes should cover these points:
– Date, time, and place
– Presiding officer
– Attendance
– Approval and correction of last meeting’s minutes
– Treasurer’s statement
– Summary of reports from officers and committees
– Summary of agenda (including old and new business) and
actions taken
– Announcements
– Adjournment

Treasurer
The treasurer works with the secretary to maintain accurate financial records.
The treasurer should be a responsible, detail-oriented person.

• Chairing the finance committee
• Collecting membership dues
• Depositing dues and all proceeds from fundraising projects
• Paying all club bills and reimbursements for club expenses
• Preparing and administering the budget
• Preparing a monthly report that accurately details
– Money on hand at the beginning and end of the month
– Income, with its source (such as membership dues or fundraising)
clearly indicated
– Payments, indicating for what and to whom
• Ensuring that the club complies with all government financial reporting
requirements

7 Rotaract hanDbook

The outgoing treasurer should give the end-of-year report to club members
and the incoming treasurer. Treasurers’ reports become part of the club’s
permanent record.

Immediate past president
Your club’s immediate past president can provide useful feedback and
perspective in the planning of club activities. He or she can assist with special
projects and provide support for board and club members.

Club Committees
Committees help your club carry out its activities and projects. The club
president, with the approval of the board, appoints five standing committees
— club service, community service, international service, professional
development, and finance — as prescribed by the Standard Rotaract Club
Constitution. Additional committees may be appointed as needed.

Committees should meet at least once a month to discuss plans and activities.
A committee may divide into subcommittees to accomplish all of its tasks.
All committee activities and expenses are subject to the board’s approval,
so committee plans should be shared with the club president.

The committee chair should:
• Notify committee members of the date, time, place, and subject
of meetings
• Prepare and follow meeting agendas
• Assign tasks to each committee member and keep track of these
assignments
• Be prepared to report back to the club’s board

Following are the responsibilities of the five standing committees:

Club service committee
• Develops strategies for recruiting new members and keeping current
members active
• Publicizes the club’s activities to members and the general public
• Plans activities for networking and socializing
• Maintains a historical record, including pictures and descriptions of club
activities

representative for more information about training Constitution and approved
opportunities. by the sponsor Rotary club.

9 Rotaract hanDbook

Club Meetings
Rotaract clubs must meet at least twice a month, but where and how are up to
you and your sponsor Rotary club. With your sponsor club’s approval, you can
choose to meet in person, online, or whatever makes sense for your members.

Consider appointing a meeting chair to organize a year’s worth of programs
or assign each meeting to a different member who serves as that meeting’s
organizer and facilitator. Involving your members in planning ensures that club
meetings are interesting and relevant to everyone. The sponsor Rotary club can
be a good source for program ideas.

Invite experts from the community or university, outstanding business leaders,
or international guests to speak at your meetings. Consider taking a field trip to
local businesses, community organizations, or cultural sites. Use a meeting to
update members about club projects or new Rotary initiatives.

Agenda
Following an agenda is the best way to ensure that time is used effectively.
Your meeting agenda might include:
1. Time for socializing before the meeting
2. Introduction of guests and new club members
3. Announcements and reminders
4. Board member and committee reports
5. Program presentation
6. Closing, including a thank-you to the program speaker and
other program participants
7. Adjournment

Officer Installation
Hold installation ceremonies annually to introduce new officers
and to recognize immediate past officers for their dedicated work.
Consider presenting certificates of recognition to all club members.

Invite the incoming president and officers of the sponsor Rotary club
to this event so they can get acquainted with new Rotaract officers.

Finding and Keeping Members
Your ability to bring in new members and retain current ones is critical to your
club’s success. Set membership goals for all club members. Here are some ways
to maintain a strong, active club.

1. Involve new members
Understand your members’ motivations for joining Rotaract. Do they want to
make the world a better place, develop their leadership skills, expand their circle
of friends? Connect members with activities and opportunities that help them
achieve their personal goals while making the club stronger.

Some other ideas:
• Welcome and celebrate new members with a special meeting or event.
• Ask experienced Rotaractors to mentor new members and make them
feel welcome.
• Follow up by phone with new members who miss a meeting.

Encourage new members to invite their friends and family members to
participate in club activities and service projects.

2. Keep current members
Keeping club members is just as important as recruiting new ones. With a
large number of enthusiastic, dedicated Rotaractors, your club can carry out
successful service projects and attract new members. Consider these ideas for
involving current members:
• Assign committee responsibilities to veteran members to acknowledge
their importance to the club.
• Recognize club members who dedicate extra time to service projects.
• Maintain a good age and gender balance. Different points of view make
for more interesting meetings, help ensure the club’s continuity, and
contribute to a richer Rotaract experience for everyone.
• Get feedback from members on the types of meetings, activities, and
projects they enjoy, and plan accordingly.
• Plan social events to bring members closer together.
• Monitor attendance to ensure that everyone attends at least 60 percent
of club meetings. Members with high attendance are the most likely to
stay involved.
• Keep members informed through a club newsletter, blog, or social
networking site.
• Help Rotaractors get involved with Interact, Youth Exchange, or
Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (RYLA) programs and other Rotary
opportunities in your area.


3. Bring in new members
The first step to bringing in new members is to get the word out about your club.
There are many ways to promote your club and its service projects.
• Organize a special event where you can
– Explain the purpose of Rotaract and show photographs or a video
of your club’s activities
– Hand out the Rotaract Promotional Card
– Emphasize how potential members can accomplish their
goals through Rotaract. Whether they want to give back to the
community, connect with new friends, develop leadership skills,
or be involved with an international organization, Rotaract has
something for everyone.
• Publicize your club’s activities in the university newspaper or other
local media (see chapter 3).
• Invite potential members to participate in a service project or attend a
club meeting.
• Develop a club website or blog where prospective members can learn
about club projects and how they can get involved. In university-based
clubs, ask for a link to your club’s site on the university website
(see chapter 8).
• Use Twitter, Facebook, and other social media to share your club’s
meeting, event, and project updates.
• Arrange for Rotaract displays at local libraries,
coffee shops, community centers, and other
places where young adults gather. Provide

3. Make a
Difference:
Service Projects

Rotaract clubs carry out two service projects each year, one that assists the local
community and one that helps a community in another country. These projects
are a great way for Rotaract clubs to get involved in their own community,
connect with young adults globally, and attract new members.

Plan Service Projects
Gain support for club projects by choosing service activities that address real
needs. Communities in Action: A Guide to Effective Projects can help your Rotaract
club select a service project that is successful, sustainable, and relevant.
Rotary’s Areas of Focus Guide has information on Rotary’s six community service
priorities: peace and conflict prevention/resolution, disease prevention and
treatment, water and sanitation, maternal and child health, basic education and
literacy, and economic and community development.

Before your club decides on a project, consider these questions:
• What services does your local community need? For the international
community, which area of focus is most compelling for your club?
• How can you collaborate with your sponsor Rotary club, another local
Rotaract club, an Interact club, or a Rotaract club in another country to
increase your impact?
• What district Rotaract projects can your club join?
• What types of service projects fit within your club’s budget and abilities?

Select a service project that allows your club members to see an immediate
benefit to the community while providing opportunities for future service.
You can find innovative ideas for service projects on the RI website.

International service projects
Some of the most rewarding projects are those conducted with Rotaract clubs
in other countries. Use the Worldwide Rotaract Directory to connect with another
club. Send photos, conduct meetings over the phone or through Skype, or
exchange emails. Look for Rotaract clubs on Facebook and Twitter. Attend an


international event, such as the Rotaract Preconvention Meeting or the Interota
conference, to meet Rotaractors from around the world and explore ideas for an
international project.

Rotaract Outstanding Project Awards
Each year, Rotary recognizes seven Rotaract clubs for their
exceptional community and international service projects. Award
recipients are invited to present their projects at the annual Rotaract
Preconvention Meeting. Learn how your club can submit its project
for consideration at www.rotary.org/rotaract.

Resources for planning service projects
• Communities in Action: A Guide to Effective Projects offers step-by-step
instructions to develop, carry out, and evaluate a service project,
including how to conduct a community needs assessment, work with
other organizations, and create a fundraising plan.
• Community Assessment Tools describes eight tools to identify effective
service projects.
• Rotary’s Areas of Focus Guide provides an introduction to Rotary’s six
areas of focus, with examples of service projects for each. The areas of
focus reflect critical humanitarian issues and needs that Rotarians are
addressing worldwide.
• Rotary Showcase allows users to add their club service projects,
exchange ideas, and explore the wide variety of activities that Rotary and
Rotaract clubs are undertaking worldwide.
• The district Rotaract chair is a Rotarian who oversees Rotaract clubs
throughout the district and offers guidance and ideas. Ask your sponsor
Rotary club for contact information.
• The annual Worldwide Rotaract Directory includes contact information
submitted by Rotaract clubs seeking to collaborate, correspond, or
exchange ideas with other clubs. It also contains district Rotaract officer
information and a list of RI Board-recognized multidistrict information
organizations. Contact your Rotaract club president for the latest edition.


World Rotaract Week
During World Rotaract Week, Rotaractors and Rotarians around
the world commemorate the chartering of the first Rotaract club.
The celebration, which takes place the week that includes 13 March,
is an ideal time for Rotaract clubs and their sponsors to carry out
joint activities and promote Rotaract clubs’ contributions to their
communities.

Rotaractors can decide the best way for their club to celebrate —
completing one, two, or an entire week’s worth of activities. After
the club has completed its World Rotaract Week events, the sponsor
Rotary club or district Rotaract chair can download a certificate of
recognition for presentation to the Rotaract club from www.rotary.org.

Secure Financial Support for Projects
Fundraising is crucial to financing club service projects and other activities.
Examples of successful Rotaract fundraisers include dinners, festivals, raffles,
sporting events, races, and benefit performances.

When putting together a fundraiser, consider these suggestions:
• Be creative. A unique or unusual event will attract the attention of
potential club members, donors, and the media.
• Have a realistic idea of the financial support needed, and set realistic
fundraising goals. Some projects may be expensive to conduct but could
generate more than enough donations to cover the costs.
• When asking for money from individuals, businesses, or organizations,
offer something of value in return, either a service or recognition.
• Take advantage of your members’ skills, talents, and contacts.
• Invite the media to attend (see tips in the next section).
• Ask the sponsor Rotary club or other Rotaract clubs for suggestions.
A fundraiser that succeeded elsewhere could also succeed in your
community.


Publicize Club Activities
Your club and its projects will receive more support if the community knows
about them. A good image in the community can also help your club recruit new
members and contribute to a positive impression of Rotaract and Rotary.
Here are some ways to ensure that your good works receive the attention
they deserve:
• Appoint a public relations contact who can get to know your local media.
The public relations committee of your sponsor Rotary club may be able
to provide a list of local media contacts.
• Publicize club activities on Facebook, Twitter, and other social media.
• Select an active club member and good communicator to serve as your
club’s spokesperson to the media.
• Inform the media of the real community needs your service projects
address. Provide reporters with background materials on your project
and club, such as fact sheets or brochures. Also, identify community
members who have benefited from your club’s projects.
• Photograph club events (see box on page 17).
• After the event, send photos and a short, clear description of the event to
the media.

Find more ideas and resources, including sample press releases and tips for
working with the media, on www.rotary.org.


How to Get Your Photographs Published
Photographs are a great way to publicize your club and its activities.
Here are some ways to make sure your club’s work gets noticed:
1. Make photography a key element of your public relations
efforts.
2. Find a photographer with the creative skill and technical
training to take high-quality photos.
– Budget for a professional photographer who works with
community volunteers.
– Identify a Rotaractor or Rotarian with photography skills
to take on that important volunteer responsibility.
– Ask for in-kind support from your university’s
photography club.
3. Show club members actively involved in a project or event.
Avoid posed group shots.
4. Take “before” and “after” shots at a service project location.
Capture the gratitude expressed in the faces of the people
who benefit from your club’s work.
5. Include the Rotaract club name and Rotaract emblem in your
photos.
6. Post photos to your Facebook page. Add them to your
club’s presentation for potential members. Send them to
your university newspaper or to a local blog with a caption
about how your Rotaract club is making a difference.

To publicize in your district and beyond, submit photos and project
information to:
• District Rotaract chair and representative
• District governor
• Rotary International (rotaract@rotary.org)

High-resolution digital images are preferred, but all photos are
welcome. The following information must be included: name of the
Rotaract club, sponsoring club, and district number with each photo,
as well as the names and club offices of Rotaractors pictured.


4. Reach Out:
Rotary Club, District, and

Faculty Adviser (university-based clubs)
The faculty adviser, usually a faculty member at a Rotaract club’s
university, oversees the activities of the university-based Rotaract
club and acts as a liaison between the sponsor Rotary club and
university administration. Patience, organizational skills, and a
commitment to working with young adults are essential qualities
of effective faculty advisers. While a non-Rotarian may serve in this
role, a Rotarian who works at the university can be an ideal choice.

Rotary District
A Rotary district is a group of Rotary clubs in a specific area or region. There are
about 530 districts worldwide.

District governor
Each Rotary district is led by a district governor, an elected Rotarian who serves
as an officer of Rotary International. The governor appoints the district Rotaract
chair to support the organization and development of Rotaract clubs.

program in the district. Under the supervision of the
district governor, this representative works to improve
communication among Rotaract clubs and to help them coordinate activities and
projects with one another and with their sponsor Rotary clubs.

District Rotaract committee
The district Rotaract committee, cochaired by the district Rotaract chair and
district Rotaract representative, is composed of equal numbers of Rotarians and
Rotaractors. The committee sponsors Rotaract district meetings and provides
leadership training for Rotaract club officers. It also helps to publicize Rotaract
throughout the district, promotes the organization of new Rotaract clubs, plans
districtwide projects and activities, and recommends resources to strengthen
clubs and increase their effectiveness.

Detailed information on the role and responsibilities of the district Rotaract
chair, district Rotaract representative, and Rotaractors on the district Rotaract
committee can be found in the Guide for District Rotaract Representatives, available
for download at www.rotaract.org/rotaract.


The RI Board of Directors sets policies governing the Rotaract program. These
policies are compiled in the Standard Rotaract Club Constitution, the Standard
Rotaract Club Bylaws, and the Rotaract Statement of Policy (see chapter 8).
For current policy or questions about policy, see www.rotary.org/rotaract or
contact rotaract@rotary.org.

RI Rotaract and Interact Committee
This is a standing committee of experienced Rotarians and Rotaractors that
advises the RI Board on Rotaract and Interact and develops the program
for the Rotaract Preconvention Meeting. The committee considers policy
recommendations and makes proposals to the Board in support of Rotaract. The
list of current committee members can be found in the RI Official Directory, the
Worldwide Rotaract Directory, and at www.rotary.org/rotaract. Rotaract clubs can
submit suggestions for policy changes to this committee.

In addition to setting Rotaract policy, Rotary International provides support
to Rotaract clubs by certifying new clubs; maintaining the Worldwide Rotaract
Directory; distributing annual communications to Rotaract clubs, sponsor Rotary
clubs, district Rotaract representatives, and district Rotaract committee chairs;
and promoting World Rotaract Week. Clubs receive these materials by keeping
their contact information current.

RI is committed to supporting Rotaract. You can email Rotaract program staff at
rotaract@rotary.org (see inside back cover for other contact information).

Learn more about RI resources in chapter 7.

Liability and Risk Management
Risk management involves identifying situations and factors that may harm
people and property, and implementing solutions to minimize or avoid
risk. Before any Rotaract club activity, evaluate potential risks and develop
coordinated plans to address them. University-based clubs should coordinate
any risk management plan with university administration. The sponsor Rotary
club’s Rotaract committee should assess Rotaract-related liability issues and
obtain appropriate insurance. It’s advisable to seek the advice of legal and
insurance counsel regarding liability protection. Note that Rotaract clubs in
the United States are covered under Rotary’s liability insurance program,
while Rotaract clubs outside the United States are not.

Send insurance-related inquiries to insurance@rotary.org.


5. Meetings and
Events for
Rotaractors
District and international meetings and events offer opportunities to make
connections and share information.

District Meetings
Rotaract district meetings give Rotaractors a chance to exchange information
and ideas, discuss service projects, enhance professional development, and
strengthen the spirit of teamwork and friendship. For more information on
planning a district-level meeting, including a sample program, see the Guide for
District Rotaract Representatives.

Multidistrict Meetings
Multidistrict meetings are conferences, seminars, or meetings at which Rotaract
clubs from several districts come together to discuss important issues. The host
district Rotaract representative must provide to the governors of the districts
involved a copy of the meeting proposal, which includes the date, location,
facilities, participants, program, budget, and proof of adequate insurance.
The host governor must approve any multidistrict meetings. The host district
Rotaract representative should inform the RI director from the host zone.

Rotaract Preconvention Meeting
Attending this international Rotaract meeting can help you strengthen your
Rotaract club, learn about outstanding Rotaract service projects, and build
lasting friendships with Rotaractors from around the world. At this annual
meeting, participants have the opportunity to discuss a wide range of Rotaract
topics in workshops and hear engaging speakers. Special sessions are offered
for Rotaract club presidents and district Rotaract representatives.


RI Convention
Rotaractors are encouraged to participate in the four-day RI Convention
immediately after the preconvention meeting. Rotaractors are invited to take
part in special forums, workshops, project exhibitions, and plenary sessions.
The convention gives Rotaractors a broader understanding of Rotary’s
international scope and service, as well as a better understanding of how
Rotaract fits into the family of Rotary. More information for both events can
be found at www.rotary.org/convention.

Interota
Interota is a triennial worldwide Rotaract meeting organized by Rotaractors
and hosted on a rotating basis in different cities. While it is not an official RI
meeting, Rotary recognizes the value of this event and supports Interota by
approving its program content and ensuring that RI leadership is represented at
the event. The meeting offers workshops, discussions, and interesting speakers
as well as cultural activities. Delegates also present proposals for the next
Interota, and participants vote to select the next meeting site.

Before making a bid to host an Interota meeting, Rotaractors must obtain
approval from the host district governor(s). After a site is selected, the host
district Rotaract representative must submit a complete proposal to Rotary
International at least one year prior to the date of the event.


6. Connecting:
Global Service Network

Rotaractors have a unique opportunity to learn about other cultures and foster
goodwill through the global family of Rotaract and Rotary.

Other Rotaract Clubs
Rotaractors may use the Worldwide Rotaract Directory to establish regular
communication with other clubs through email, letters, and social media to
learn about their activities, projects, and cultural traditions.

A twin-club relationship can be arranged with a Rotaract club in another
country. Twin clubs communicate regularly, arrange visits or exchanges, share
project ideas, and cooperate on community or international service projects.
Consider choosing a twin club from your city’s sister city or a place where your
university has a study-abroad opportunity.

As Rotaractors travel for study, work, or pleasure, staying with local Rotaractors
can build international friendships and foster a better understanding of other
cultures. Contact another club to see if it can host visiting Rotaractors.

Multidistrict Information Organizations
A multidistrict information organization (MDIO) may be formed
between two or more districts to help Rotaract clubs share
information and improve communication. Rotaract representatives
of the member districts comprise an MDIO’s membership. Approval
for such organizations must be secured from two-thirds of the
Rotaract clubs in each district as well as the governors and Rotaract
representatives of the districts involved. The RI general secretary
must approve proposals on behalf of the RI Board.

MDIOs have no decision-making or legislative powers beyond those
concerning the activities of the organization itself. Funds needed to
implement a multidistrict organization’s activities must be secured
voluntarily.

Refer to the Worldwide Rotaract Directory for a list of MDIOs.


Rotary Fellowships
Rotary Fellowships are groups of Rotarians and Rotaractors who share a
common recreational interest or hobby — everything from cycling to social
networking, from the environment to marathon running.

Rotarian Action Groups
Rotarian Action Groups are organized by Rotarians and Rotaractors with
expertise and a particular interest in international service projects involving
such areas as water and sanitation or HIV/AIDS.

More information and websites of Global Networking Groups are available at
www.rotary.org/fellowships and www.rotary.org/actiongroups.

Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (RYLA)
RYLA, which is sponsored by Rotary clubs and districts, allows young people
to attend a training workshop that focuses on leadership, professional
development, and personal growth. Rotaractors may be either program
participants or leaders. Contact your local Rotary club or email ryla@rotary.org to
find the RYLA chair in your area.

Interact
Interact is a Rotary-sponsored service organization for youth ages 12 to 18.
Like Rotaractors, Interactors carry out local and international service projects
in partnership with their sponsor Rotary club. Rotaractors can conduct projects
with Interact clubs or mentor Interactors in their communities. Contact your local
Rotary club or email interact@rotary.org to find the Interact chair in your area.

New Generations Exchanges
New Generations Exchanges (part of the Rotary Youth Exchange program) are
open to students and young professionals ages 18 to 25, and usually last from a
few weeks to three months, making this a suitable option for recent secondary
school graduates, young professionals, and Rotaractors. Contact your sponsor
Rotary club or email youthexchange@rotary.org to find the Youth Exchange chair
in your area.

The Rotary Foundation
The Rotary Foundation offers university students and young professionals
the opportunity to foster peace and understanding through funded grants
that enable them to earn master’s degrees or certificates in peace and conflict
resolution. The Foundation also funds grants for humanitarian projects,
scholarships, and other activities related to Rotary’s six areas of focus.
