Avenues
1. Community Service
A large component of the Rotaract movement aims to address the physical and social needs of the community both at national and global level. The avenue provides opportunities for youth development through numerous projects aimed at serving the community at large. Since the club’s inception, we have made trips down to elderly, children and mental health homes, exposed volunteers to international community service work through awareness campaigns, fundraising and direct interaction with the various beneficiaries.

2. Professional Development
According to the Rotaract Handbook and constitution, two of the goals of Professional Development (also known as Vocational Service) in Rotaract are:
1. To recognize the dignity and value of all occupations as opportunities to serve;
2. To recognize, practice and promote ethical standards as leadership qualities and vocational responsibilities

3. International Service
The main role of International Service is to engage in annual overseas community service projects to help improve living conditions in other parts of the world and to increase world understanding within the Rotaract Club and the international community.
The avenue is also involved in the hosting of foreign Rotaractors when they come to Singapore. In return, we get the privilege of having a wide network of friends to take care of us during our overseas goodwill visits to the foreign Rotaract Clubs.
The objective of the activities is to encourage and foster the advancement of International understanding, goodwill and peace through a world fellowship of young adults united in the ideals of service. Through hosting and overseas goodwill visits, we get to learn more about each country’s cultures and forge strong friendships and bonds across international borders.
