As we step into the final quarter of another year, I am indeed proud to mention that Rotaract Mora has been able to continue its service in all its avenues to deliver our best service as a part of the global fraternity of Rotaract throughout the past three months. The third quarter of the Rotaract Mora calendar was exciting with several mo- mentous initiatives and collaborative efforts inclusive of Data Storm 1.0, the first-ever Data Analytics Case Study competition, Wanakkam, an effort to expand our service to another culture, the Theme Reveal, the first step of CAST4 and many more. The club’s signature projects including Grama Prabodhaya 2019/20, Hand in Hand 2019/20 and Manusath Handa continued with the relent- less efforts of our member base in pursuit of success in each and every endeav- our. Moreover, the club membership was officially expanded to the new batch of the university marking another milestone of the Rotaract year 2019/2020. The countless hours of dedication and commitment of our members undoubt- edly stood tall as ever throughout this journey, and the assistance of the fellow Rotaract Clubs, Interact Clubs, Rotary Clubs and various governmental and non-governmental organisations were of immense strength in every effort pur- sued by the club.
