Rotaract

Rotaract is the college-level Rotary-sponsored service club, making its members true "partners in service" and key members of the family of Rotary. Rotaract is one of Rotary’s most significant and fastest growing service programs. With more than 8,400 clubs in about 170 countries and geographical areas, Rotaract has become a worldwide phenomenon. All Rotaract efforts begin at the grassroots level, with members addressing their communities’ physical and social needs while promoting international understanding and peace through a framework of friendship and service. Rotaract has a great focus on leadership and consist of a Club President, Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer.  Rotaract; here at Martin Methodist College (MMC) was chartered in 2008 by co-sponsors Dr. Jack Gregory, vice president of college advancement, and Edna Luna, director of alumni relations, both of whom are Rotarians.

MMC’s Rotaract hosts a variety of service projects; some that are consistent and others that differ.  For example, Rotaract is committed to the American Cancer Society and its Relay for Life of Giles County; they have been host to the Cake Walk for student activities festivals held on campus.  They partner with businesses to sponsor fundraisers such as 5k run/walk for charities.  Members assist in community and college needs at various events whether it is serving at a dinner or valet parking cars. The services are above and beyond and go on and on.
