Rotary International has created a New Avenue of Service, and the month of September takes on a new meaning.
The commitment to getting youth and young adults actively involved in Rotary was strengthened in April when representatives at the Council on Legislation approved New Generations as the fifth Avenue of Service.
RI President Ray Klinginsmith says the new Avenue of Service improves the value of youth programs and their impact on Rotary's future. "The Council wanted to be sure New Generations programs were given adequate attention by clubs," says Klinginsmith. "Rotarians just want to be up front and recognize the importance of these programs."
New Generations Service acknowledges the positive change implemented by youth and young adults involved in leadership development activities, community and international service, and exchange programs that enrich and foster world peace and cultural understanding. Programs include RYLA, Rotaract, Interact, and Rotary Youth Exchange.
Our Club has appointed Doug Cortes the New Generations Service chair. New Generations joins Club Service, Vocational Service, Community Service, and International Service as one of the Five Avenues of Service.
