Interact at Rotary International Have you heard of the Rotary International? It started in the USA
in 1905, and now has millions of members all over the world. Its members are mostly business
people who want to improve people’s lives, both in their local communities and abroad. Young

people can also get involved in Rotary International’s Interact programme. Interact is a club for
young people aged 12–18. Each Interact club has different rules – some are only for boys, some
only for girls, and some are mixed. Sometimes, the members only come from one school. In
Interact, members can participate in projects where they help people locally and in other
countries. This helps to create international understanding and goodwill, and you can also make
friends for life. Members learn the importance of respecting people from different cultures, taking
individual responsibility, and working hard. There are now over 10,000 Interact clubs throughout
the world, with nearly 200,000 members. If you’re interested, find out if there is a local Rotary
Club in your town.
