What is EarlyAct?

• EarlyAct is a service club for elementary
  students,  It is sponsored by one of the local
  Rotary Clubs in the town or city in which the
  school is located.  The mission and operation of
  EarlyAct are closely linked to the ideals of
  Rotary and provide the foundation and natural
  succession into Interact.

What does EarlyAct provide to our students?

• EarlyAct provides young students the opportunity
  for gaining an increased awareness and knowledge
  of their community and the world.  At a young
  age, all students can easily be encouraged to be
  caring and helpful.  Their minds are open to
  recognize the dignity and worth of each
  individual which builds respect for others.

8
EarlyAct also engages students in
character-building activities and prepares them
for leadership roles to identify and carry out
projects which benefit their school, local, and
global communities.
