"Service above self" outlines the reason why I choose to be an active member of Rotaract. It's important to me to give back to the community that has and continues to support me, as well as to have a hand in strengthening other communities. Rotaract not only allows me to uphold my values and ideals, but it also has encouraged me to foster new connections in various domains. There is something to be said about our group's ability to come together and tend to all communities.
