Interact Club
October 11, 2018
Interact is a club involved in many community projects here at South Broward High School. The club is run by Rotary International, a “global network with 1.2 million neighbors, friends, leaders, and problem solvers,”
Interact here at South Broward has a huge impact on our community because they do many service projects, like helping out with the Harvest Drive for families during the holidays. One big project Interact is working on is providing clean water to families in the community, and the money was provided from selling rice Krispies to South Broward students during school.
For students like Emily Martinez, Interact is “An amazing club. We do a bunch of projects that help our community in many different ways like helping out with the harvest drive.” And for other students like Mercia Mathew, Interact is “Interact is a club that’s active in helping our community and people who are less fortunate, I’m happy to be a part of it.”
Rotary members, as well as Interact members, see a world where people unite to create lasting change across the world and its community, and that’s a simple principle that Interact, sponsored by Mrs. Hixon and Mrs. Hollis, lives by. Rotary is about 110 years old and is always working to better the world and communities- from literacy and peace to water and health projects. Rotary International and its sibling being Interact focus on projects like promoting peace, fighting diseases, providing clean water, sanitation, and hygiene, to saving mothers and children, to supporting education and growing economies.
Mrs. Hixon and Mrs. Hollis are great sponsors who make every project worthwhile and they are just as excited as us to get involved. If you are interested in joining Interact, talk with Mrs. Hixon in the guidance office, she is always looking for new recruits.
