♦ A Report from our Rotaract Club: The Purdue Rotaract students met with the CC high school Interact students in order to explain to them what Purdue's Rotaract has accomplished over the years Such as: Caregiver Companions, Natalie's Second Chance, Trick-or-Treat for Cans... so on.
We were thrilled to share with them our experience with Rotaract through Purdue, and to find out all about the great work that they have been doing throughout their high school experience. Rotaract’s areas of focus for volunteerism are SPOT-ON with what the students in Interact wish to do (working with the elderly, children, and animal shelters) – that genuinely was the top three areas for everyone’s goals. Rotaract looks forward to working further with Interact in the Spring [2014] semester.
