It’s who we are...We are a charity group that is committed to making a change in our community whilst still having fun and building life long friendships. For us, it’s all about building relationships – with our community, our members, our Interactors, our fellow Rotaract clubs, our parent club Rotary, our sponsors and most importantly, the people we help with our charity projects.

By broadening our horizons, and expanding our portfolio, we are not only able to reach more people in the communities we serve, but we can create awareness and spend our time dedicating ourselves to making the world a better place.

It’s what we do...

We try to keep our options open with projects and also keep a broad spectrum. From renovating houses, assisting at medical camps, helping baby centres, old age homes and animal shelters, we are willing to do it all! We offer assistance through financial donations, volunteer work, collection drives, fundraiser and offering professional advise through our various fields of expertise.

“To use Rotaract as a platform to make a difference in the community and to get involved with as many projects as possible!” - Mispah

“ To give back to the community, especially to people who are less fortunate but still deserving. To feel that good things can still happen and that we can make a difference.” - Caitlin

“To serve those less fortunate than myself, to broaden my mind to the needs of the world.” - Helen

“To do some good where I can.” - Lauren“To be the difference I want to see” - Tate“To give back to the community and leave my footprint
