Interact is a happy medium between a social club and a service club. It can give you the best of two possible worlds, Interested?
You may be if you read on.
Some people join Interact to meet to new friends, some join to help others.
If you join Interact, you may find yourself putting together a playground for an orphanage, tacking down jobs for unemployed teenagers at a placement center, singing your heart out in a musical show for senior citizens or taking part in a variety of fund raising activities perhaps as anchor person in a "pea-pushing contest" or as "standby" in a 500 hour table tennis marathon all to raise money for a worth cause. While doing any one of these things, you will be with new friends you have met through Interact.

All people who belong to Interact are of high school or secondary school age. Some clubs emphasize leadership potential or good grades as prerequisites for membership.
Interact, however, is not an exclusive club. The most important credential is that a person wants to join and become a part of a lively group involved in promoting international understanding and serving the community. A typical Interactor, someone once said, "is friendly, is caring and is interested in things".
Clubs come in a variety of types and sizes. No two Interact clubs are alike. Some have as few as 20 members while others have over 200. Certain clubs are all male of all female, while others have a mixed membership. The membership base of a club can be drawn from the student body of a single school or from the non-student population of a community.

Interact is a service club, which means work. it gives you the opportunity to work with friendly people, which makes it a joy as well.
When young people learn to depend on each other, to share ideas and to enjoy working together, more gets done -- and it gets done more effectively. The people involved also benefit and Lear from the experience. Although there is work involved, it should be emphasized that there is fun for all as well. interact clubs sponsor folk festivals and fancy dress balls, climb volcanoes, attend lobster fiestas, visit archeological digs, water ski, build biology ponds for fish and frogs at schools, publish school literary magazines and sponsor bike-a-thons to raise money for community projects.
As you can see, the social and service aspect of the club blend together. When young, enthusiastic and energetic people get together, contributing new ideas and a sense of humor, you end up with a club that is worth looking into.

Even the name Interact - a combination of the English words "International" and "Action" - highlights the international aspect of the program. Clubs are located throughout the world.
In fact, more than 118,000 young people belonging to Interact live in 85 countries - some in temperate, some in tropical and some in colder regions.
When you belong to a world wide organization, you are bound to learn some interesting things, such as: what life is like in Aanekoski, Kilimanjaro or down under in Australia: and what people do on the other side of the world on Saturday night.
Generally the conclusion is that people everywhere are amazingly and immensely interesting.
Interact clubs send each other tape recordings, letter, magazines, stamps, books, music, and pictures of themselves, among other things. One club put together an audiovisual show of its hometown. Clubs sponsor student exchanges and visits. International understanding becomes more that words.
Interact has members of every race, creed and color - all committed and working towards the same ideal.
While one club in Nairobi, Kenya is transplanting banana trees on the grounds of a home for disabled children, another club in Hong Kong is wrapping presents for a Christmas party for handicapped children and a third in cutting a road through a swamp is India. Meanwhile, i the USA a club is holding a carnival to raise funds for a program that helps rehabilitate young drug addicts.
All of these are Interact clubs working on different projects to accomplish the same thing - meeting human needs.

Every Interact club should plan at least two projects each year - one to serve the school or community and one to advance international understanding. These projects will include you. Whether it is putting up music speakers in a school cafeteria, running a paperback bookstore, or collecting three tons of clothing for the needy - if you want to do such things, you can be a part of Interact.
A club divided into committees virtually guarantees that everyone gets into the action.
Good service projects take lots of people, planning and persistence - if they are to succeed. An active member picks up practical experience, discovers new interests and at times share the "good feeling" that goes with serving others.
This is why Interactors find themselves done all kinds things - wheeling paralyzed children through a zoo, putting on a talent show to raise money to buy school typewriters, assisting at a special Olympics for physically and mentally handicapped children or clearing up a polluted river and returning it ti a fresh flowing stream.

"I don't know what your destiny will be, but one thing I know, the only ones among you who will be really happy are those who have sought and found how to serve.", said Albert Schweitzer. The basic principle of Interact is to serve others. It is one person in cooperation with other persons reaching out to still others.
A person may have a great idea that can be carried out more effectively in a group than by an individual. Interact may be the place for your ideas and the group for you.
