“Rotaractors are young leaders who are developing innovative solutions to the world’s most pressing challenges.” -Rotary International

Rotaract is not just a movement but a family that strives for positive change in society. One can clearly say that Rotaract is a place where young, like-minded adults who share the same goals, get together to create an everlasting impact while building new friendships.

Not only do Rotaractors meet new people, but they also get to hone their leadership skills. Rotaract is a place where you can find talented, successful people. You can be motivated and influenced by them, learn new things from them, and improve your own leadership skills. Being part of Rotaract allows you to continuously learn about critical community needs, create and manage teams and other resources, raise funds, and celebrate achievements. These will help you to improve your management skills and will come in handy when you are working, such as managing resources, production, people, finances, publicity, promotions, and projects.

The Rotaract Professional Network is the main benefit you can get by being a Rotaractor. When a person wishes to work as an intern or is looking for a job after studies, the network you have built through Rotaract will help him or her to get the desired internship or achieve his or her goals. Employers are keen to hire Rotaractors for their workforce, as they are well aware that Rotaractors can work under pressure, have good communication skills, make good decisions, and work well with other team members. In the modern context, employers are not just hiring employees because of their CVs; they also check the ability of job applicants to tolerate unplanned situations and make decisions that align with the strategic goals of the company.

Further, Rotaractors provide community service to both local and international communities. This is perhaps the best reason for becoming a Rotaractor: the chance to do something for somebody else, to sense the self-fulfilment that comes in the process, and return that satisfaction to one’s own life. We should always try to help others with anything we can, and we might not know if the person we help today can be a helping hand to us in the future.

In addition, by being a Rotaractor, you will be able to gain international exposure. Through letterhead exchanges carried out by the Rotaract clubs, one can get exposed to different cultures and perspectives. Rotaractors can also join many of the youth exchange programs that the Rotary organizes, travel to other countries, and attend conferences held worldwide.

As you can see, there are so many benefits that you can get from being a Rotaractor. Choose Rotaract and join this community to make change through small steps. You will never regret the choice of joining a Rotaract Club, for one day, you will realize that it was the best decision you have ever made in your life.
