  3. WHY NEW GENRATION? • Past RI President Luis Vicente Giay coined the term New Generations when he shared his belief that the future of Rotary relied on involving young people in the organization’s programs and activities. • At the 1996 RI Convention in Calgary, Alberta,Canada, he said: • “Our vision for the future, now more than ever, is the difference between success and failure. The New Generations are our investment in the future. Let us begin to build that future today.”

  4. IMPORTANCE • New Generations Service became Rotary’s fifth Avenue of Service in 2010 • New Generations Service recognizes the positive change implemented by youth and young adults through leadership development activities, involvement in community and international service projects, and exchange programs that enrich and foster world peace and cultural understanding

  5. OUR(CLUB)ROLE • Rotary clubs should be committed to involving youth and young adults in their vocational, community, and international service projects, and to providing programs and resources that support them. Ensure continuity in New Generations Service through your club leadership plan. • Incorporate support for New Generations into existing committees, or consider establishing a New Generations committee. Ask committee members to help develop long-range goals for this Avenue of Service • Reaching out to New Generations is a commitment to the future of your Rotary club

  9. WHERE IT ALL BEGAN • Since its earliest days, Rotary has been committed to helping children in need. • But in 1960, the organization took a new approach to youth service. Recognizing the untapped potential of young men and women, RI President Harold T. Thomas urged Rotary clubs around the world to find ways to encourage service among youth, foster their active interest in the community, and offer opportunities for them to develop as leaders

  10. WHAT IS INTERACT • Interact is a service club for youth ages 14-18. • Clubs benefit from sponsorship by individual Rotary clubs, which provide support and guidance. • Interact has a membership of over 250,000 youth in more than 11,000 clubs worldwide. It’s one of Rotary’s fastest growing programs. • Interact clubs are self-governing and selfsupporting and can be either school or community based.

  11. Interact’s name is a combination of the words international and action. With clubs in over 120 countries and geographical areas, Interact is truly an international phenomenon • Interact’s global youth network is dedicated to community and international service. Every Interact club project, great or small, has a lasting impact on society worldwide • Brazil, India, the Philippines, and the UnitedStates boast the highest number of Interact clubs

  12. AS INTERACTOR • Each year, Interact clubs complete at least two community service projects, one of which furthers international understanding and goodwill • Through these efforts, Interactors develop a network of friendships with local and overseas clubs
