ROTARACT

Rotaract was founded in 1968 as a Rotary International youth program at Charlotte North Rotary Club in Charlotte, North Carolina, and has evolved into a global organization with over 10,904 chapters and over 203,000 members in 189 countries. It is a service, leadership, professional, and community service organization for young men and women aged 18 and above (commonly referred to as a Social Service Club)... In 1991, the Rotaract Club of Birgunj became Nepal's first Rotaract Club. Rotaract Clubs in Nepal, on the other hand, have only been active and effective since 1998. Before 2008, the Rotaract District Council of RI District 3290 was the facilitating body for Rotaract Clubs in Nepal. Though it was part of RI District 3290, the Rotaract Clubs in Nepal used to exist as an autonomous self-functioning entity from 2005 under the leadership of Mr Avash Piya as Associate DRR.
