ABOUT US

Interact Indiranagar is a branch of Rotary, which has over 2000 clubs across India. Interact focuses on the age groups of 12-18, in order to encourage young adults to be mindful of their environment and give back to the community. Founded in 2018 by a group of teenagers in Indiranagar, our parent club Rotary Indiranagar and Rotary Brigades immediately took us under their wing. They have guided and supported us with our projects, initiatives and invocation ceremonies. We started off with just a few members and we have now expanded to over 40 members, some of whom live further away from Indiranagar but are still passionate about supporting and developing communities.

How can you join our club?

You can join Interact Indiranagar by sending us an email here(interactindiranagar@gmail.com). Our offline meetings take place at the Rotary House of Service in Indiranagar.

Why we do what we do

Our Ideologies

It is said quite frequently that teenagers like us are the future of the planet. We know that the impact we can make on the world as a whole isn't much; but every action can help a family, or a school, or a community in some way. We would like to spend our today doing service for a better tomorrow.

Collaboration

All of our members collaborate with each other to ensure that we can work together to achieve a common goal. We do this through twice-monthly online and offline meetings.

Capitalising on Strengths

Each person has their individual strengths and passions; Interact encourages their members to utilise their strengths and contribute!
