Spotlight on service: World Interact Week | ||
Earlier this month, Interactors organized a variety of service activities to celebrate 54 years of Interact for World Interact Week. From Asia to Africa and to the Americas, Interactors made a difference in their communities. The Interact Club of Iquitos, Peru (pictured) donated encyclopedias to an Amazonian library. See how everyone celebrated through service on our #WorldInteractWeek social wall. Share your service story! Post your project on Rotary Showcase and email the link to newgenerations@rotary.org | ||
