Directions

Rotaract is a global organization that empowers students and young professionals to create positive change in their local communities and around the world.

Rotaract Club is more than just a community service group. The club is part of a global effort to bring peace and international understanding to the world. This effort starts at the community level, but it knows no limits in its outreach. Comprising of individuals ages 18-30, we meet twice a month to exchange ideas and plan activities and projects. Rotaract provides unique opportunities that assist its members in becoming the business and professional leaders of tomorrow. We have been involved in efforts to distribute food and other supplies post-Typhoon Soudelor, beach clean-ups through MVA, volunteering at the local dog shelter, and volunteering at the annual Governor's Cup Tournament of Champions in whose fundraising proceeds go back to the community, i.e. in repairing the railing at Mt. Tapochao.

Learning with the Incoming Leaders of the PBG & District 2750 Rotary Family 🙌

This past March, our Club President, Richard Baleares, attended the District 2750 President-Elect Learning Seminar in Guam. This marked the 5th time an incoming officer from our club has participated in a PELS/PETS event!

Two days of learning, connecting, and building fellowship with fellow Presidents from Rotary and Rotaract across the Pacific Basin Group helped equip our incoming President with the tools and inspiration to lead our club into another Rotary Year ahead.

Our club President also had a chance to meet with RY 26-27 District Governor Hidemasa Muto, a familiar face to the Rotaract family in District 2750, whose support for the district has been steadfast.

🌟 Inspiring Youth Leadership Across the Marianas! 🤝

Back in March, our club took part in @‌rotaractmarianas' Rotary Youth Leadership Conference for High Schoolers, with our Club President Richard Baleares being bestowed the honor of being the keynote speaker!

In his keynote, our club president highlighted the importance of leadership beyond titles, staying open to lifelong learning, being genuine in all that you do, and the idea that givers get, showing students that real leadership is about ownership, authenticity, and showing up for others.

Our club's representatives also stepped up as facilitators, leading team-building activities and helping the conference run smoothly, all while picking up best practices in the hopes of hosting a future event of our own in Saipan.

🏓 Celebrating New Generations, Together 🏓

This past May, the Rotary Club of Saipan continued its over-a-decade-long tradition of New Generations Day, honoring the Rotaract and Interact Clubs of Saipan.

This year's celebration carries extra meaning, as it marked the first time Rotarians, Rotaractors, and Interactors reconvened after the devastation of Super Typhoon Sinlaku, offering a much-needed mental reset amid disaster recovery. It also marked a first for New Generations Day, formatted as a pickleball fellowship with the support of Rotarians Dr. Nelson and Donna Krum and the Pickleball Federation of the Northern Mariana Islands.

Our club remains grateful for the guidance and support of our sponsor Rotary Club over the years, as well as the continued collaboration of the Interact Clubs across many events.

Another year, Island-Wide Cleanup 🙌 🌊

Just days before Super Typhoon Sinlaku hit the Marianas, our club participated in the annual Island-Wide Cleanup (IWC) organized by the CNMI Bureau of Environmental and Coastal Quality (BECQ), reaffirming our commitment to Rotary's Focus Area of Protecting Our Environment.

RAC Saipan has participated in the IWC for many years, and this year was no exception. Our club was tasked with cleaning Marine Beach in Kagman, where we collected over 100 pounds of trash! This beach is known for accumulating trash washed ashore by ocean currents, and it's been on our club's bucket list for years. We were thrilled to finally cross it off and play a part in cleaning up this stretch of coastline.

We'd also like to extend our appreciation to CNMI BECQ for continuing this annual event, for their support of our club's annual participation, and for their continuous stewardship of our island's environment.

🌟 Empowering Rotary’s Tomorrow! 🤝🤝

Back in March, our club continued our commitment to strengthening leadership skills, fostering collaboration, and inspiring service-driven youth by hosting the 2nd Leadership Seminar for the Interact Clubs of Saipan for Rotary Year 2025-26.

The seminar aims to strengthen ties between Interact, Rotaract, and Rotary while preparing members to be leaders in their schools, communities, and beyond.

We once again extend our heartfelt gratitude to our keynote speaker, Rotarian Donna Krum, and the Rotary Club of Saipan for their ongoing support of Rotaract and Interact.

Due to the devastation left behind by Super Typhoon Sinlaku, we are cancelling our upcoming Unite 5K, originally scheduled for May 16 at the Garapan Fishing Base.

Our thoughts are with our community as we recover together. We are grateful for the support we received leading up to this event and look forward to bringing the Unite 5K back once our islands are on their feet.

🌊 Starting the Year with Service to Our Shores 🌊

As part of our continued commitment to Rotary’s Area of Focus on Protecting the Environment, our club held a beach cleanup at Pak Pak Beach. Although parts of the beach are currently closed due to construction, we were still able to collect bags of litter and other discarded trash left behind in the area.

Pak Pak Beach holds special meaning for our club. In May 2024, we partnered with NMC’s ENRO Club, CNMI Forestry, and the Mariana Islands Nature Alliance for a tree-planting project at this very site. During the cleanup, we checked on the trees planted two years ago and are proud to see them growing well and unaffected by nearby development.

After the cleanup, Rotaractors gathered for a simple breakfast fellowship, continuing a long-standing tradition of sharing food and fellowship after a service project.

While organized cleanups make an impact, keeping our beaches clean is a community-wide responsibility. Protecting our island’s natural beauty requires daily awareness and shared accountability from all of us.

Through projects, partnerships, and leadership development, the club has remained committed to making a lasting impact on our members and on our island community.

Happy Charter Anniversary, RAC Saipan! 🎉

🚴 Helping End Polio Now! 🚴

Our club, alongside Interactors from Kagman High School, Marianas High School, and Saipan Community School, recently joined our Rotarian Aunts and Uncles from the Rotary Club of Saipan () in supporting their 3rd Annual End Polio Now Bike Race.

Rain or shine, we remain steadfast in our commitment to eradicating polio while promoting a healthy and active lifestyle. We are grateful to the Rotary Club of Saipan for once again including the New Generations in this meaningful cause.

This year’s race also welcomed a special guest: Past District 2750 Governor (RY 23–24) Yoichiro Miyazaki of the Rotary Club of Tokyo Mitaka. It was a pleasure to welcome PDG Miyazaki back to our Pacific Basin Group.
