In short, we're a bunch of young people who want to contribute to the community. Rotaract itself originally began as a Rotary International youth programme in 1968 but has grown into a major Rotary organisation of over 7,000 clubs spread around the world with over 170 000 members. Whilst the aim is to bring peace and international understanding to the world, at our club, we start at the grassroots by helping the local community.
We fundraise by planning, organising and hosting our own events, from boat cruises to BBQs, and then donate the money to charities we think make a difference. We also help out in the community, from driving Red Shield Appeal doorknockers, to cleaning up local areas for CleanUp Australia Days. Everything we do is organised by members, done by members, for the community. We get our hands dirty, and have a lot of fun in the process.
We'd love for you to join! All you need to do is send us an email or come to a meeting. We meet at Burwood RSL Club (96 Shaftesbury Road, Burwood), usually on the first Thursday of each month, but be sure to email us to check.
