Rotary’s Areas of Impact
Rotaract at WM
Rotaract is back at W&M after 13 years! Overall, Rotaract clubs bring together young people ages 18 and older in communities worldwide to organize service activities, develop leadership skills, and socialize. The Rotaract club supports Rotary international grants in the 7 areas of focus.
Our club is partnered with the Rotary Club of Williamsburg and a team of international Rotarians to work on grants. Our team will be working closely with Walter Hughes and his team to conduct global grants in Ghana.
