On 9 September Tahiti Rotaract held a very successful wine tasting and fashion and jewelry parade to raise funds to help make the Christmas of disadvantage children a little brighter.  In addition to the wine tasting, the approximate 100 people attending had the opportunity to extend their support by participating in a raffle.  Tahiti Rotaract have been holding this event since they were chartered in 2003.  Their other major event is around Mothers Day. 

 

 

Although we have links with Rotary, we operate independently, we have our office, our actions, our budget," said the President, Angelique Ah-Scha who took the opportunity to appeal as follows:

 

"It's a mixed association, open to students and engaged in active life who wish to invest in a volunteer movement advocating friendship and service."

 

Members give what they can/want in respect of their time, pledging up to their means. All activities are carried out through fundraising."

 

"In Tahiti, we organize a special day for moms who live in social homes and for children. For now we are not enough to do more."

 

New members are welcome with their ideas.
