Kisu Interact club.


I am a member of the Kisu interact club and we meet once a week in miss Bamwoeraki's room. Here is a brief outline of what we do in the club.

Interact is a club for youth ages 12-18 who want to connect with others in their community or school. Interact club members have fun while carrying out service projects and learning about the world. Interact clubs organize at least two service projects a year: one that benefits their community and one that encourages international understanding. While Interact clubs receive guidance from individual Rotary clubs, they govern and support themselves.

Some of the things we do in interact are:

Carry out hands-on service projects
Make international connections
Develop leadership skills




The goal of international service through Interact is to encourage and foster the advancement of international understanding, goodwill, and peace through a world fellowship of youth united in the ideal of service. Interact clubs organize a variety of projects and activities, depending primarily on the interests of the club member. Service Above Self is Rotary's foremost guiding principle. An Interact club's service projects are designed to improve the quality of life at home and abroad. These projects often address today's most critical issues, such as violence, drug abuse, AIDS, hunger, the environment, and illiteracy. Each Interact club is required to complete at least two major service projects annually; one to serve the community and another to promote international understanding. Each should involve all or most of the members of the club.

We have been able to achieve a lot since the beginning of the club in term 1. we were able to provide for a girl names Josephine with sickle cell anemia as well as work at a charity drive and attend the national Rotarian conference which the head of rotary was able to attend.

interact stands for International Action and carries out projects based on four main elements, Community Service, Finance, International Understanding and Club Service.
