After the success of Interact Clubs for high school-age youth (14-18) in the early 1960’s, the Rotary International board created Rotaract in 1968.  The new organisation was designed to promote responsible citizenship and leadership potential in clubs of young men and women, aged 18-30.  The first Rotaract Club was chartered by the Charlotte North Rotary Club in Charlotte, North Carolina, USA.

Rotaract clubs emphasise the importance of individual responsibility as the basis of personal success and community involvement.  Each club sponsors an annual project to promote high ethical standards in one’s business and professional life.  Rotaract also provides opportunities leading to greater international understanding and goodwill.  Rotaractors enjoy many social activities as well as programs to improve their community.  A Rotaract club can exist only when continuously sponsored, guided and counselled by a Rotary club.

The programs of Rotaract are built around the motto ‘Fellowship Through Service’.
