| Bellaire/Southwest Houston Rotary is
committed to developing character, service, and skills in
the leaders of tomorrow and to that end sponsors a
community-based RotarAct Club that was chartered in
November 2006.
Rotaract clubs provide an
opportunity for young adults to enhance their knowledge
and skills that will assist them in personal development,
to aid the physical and social needs to their communities,
and to promote better relations between people worldwide.
Offering a financial commitment that recognizes youthful
career-building status, RotarAct is designed for
young men and women ages 18 to 30 who want to make a
difference in society. As in baseball, RotarAct clubs
serve a "farm club" function that helps prepare
future Rotarians for a lifetime of service above
self.

Rotaract was founded
in 1968 by Rotary International. Today there are over
7,000 Rotaract clubs with more than 165,000 members. All
RotarAct Clubs must be sponsored by a Rotary Club. RotarActors
often become Ambassadorial Scholars or Group Study
Exchange team members. For additional information about
