Rotaract is an international organization of service clubs for men and women aged 18-30 that fosters leadership and responsible citizenship, encourages high ethical standards in business and promotes international understanding and peace.
It enables members to meet people, try new activities, and make a difference in their local community.
Rotaract Clubs work under the guidance of their local Rotary Club, and take their name from a combination of the words Rotary and action.

The first officially chartered Rotaract Club was in North Charlotte, North Carolina, in 1968, but clubs of young people associated in service with local Rotary Clubs had existed for several years in India and Europe. 

Clubs draw members from the community or are organized as an extracurricular activity for college students. Rotaract Clubs conduct formal meetings, usually every two weeks, which feature speakers, tours of local businesses, cultural activities, discussions, and visits to other clubs. Rotaractors utilize weekends for service project work, social events, and professional and leadership development workshops. Every Rotaract Club is part of a district Rotaract organization, run by elected representatives with support from sponsoring Rotarians.
