By Shahroz Ahmed, Rotaract Club of Faisalabad City, Pakistan

My journey in Rotaract has been transformative, marked by personal growth and the acquisition of valuable skills. Prior to joining Rotaract, I struggled with speaking in public. Rotaract gave me a supportive environment where I could gradually overcome my fear of public speaking. Through opportunities to address meetings and participate in community events, I improved my communication skills and gained confidence in expressing my ideas effectively.

Rotaract has also equipped me with a diverse set of practical skills that have proven beneficial in both my personal and professional lives. From project management and event coordination to technical engagements, my involvement in Rotaract exposed me to hands-on experiences that enhanced my problem-solving abilities and taught me to be adaptable.

By embracing the challenges and opportunities in Rotaract, I have grown as a leader and as an individual. I am grateful for both the experiences and the platform it has provided me.

I would encourage anyone seeking personal growth, leadership development, and the opportunity to make a positive impact in their community to consider joining Rotaract. It’s a welcoming community where you can learn new skills, meet inspiring individuals, and contribute meaningfully to causes you care about.
