September is Youth Service Month!

As Rotarians we have a responsibility to provide guidance, encouragement and support to the youth in our community fostering them to become compassionate citizens and leaders.  In addition, we are also expected to undertake projects that support their fundamental needs of health, human values, education and self-development.

Youth Services Month gives us an opportunity to recognize the achievements of our Rotary Youth Arms and other young people who strive to make a difference in their world. 

Our Rotary’s youth programmes encourage young adults to be involved in their community and become a positive energy that inspires those that they come in contact with.  

The RI Structured Programs for youths are Interact, Rotaract, Rotary Youth Leadership Awards, and Rotary Youth Exchange.  Beyond that our Youth Service Opportunities include our EarlyAct Clubs,  Children at Risk, Health Care and Literacy.  

During the month of September we challenge you to get involved in our youth programmes.   Attend a Rotaract or Interact meeting.  Volunteer as a guest speaker at one of their meetings.   Support one of their community service activities.  Be a part of the MOVEMENT.  Support the FUTURE.   Uplift our YOUTH.
