Valentine's day for a worthy cause! මනුෂ්යත්වයේ පාගමන By Rtr. Nethmie Jayasooriya ‘Congenital heart disease is a major killer in children under five years of age. For every 1000 new-born babies, 6-8 are born with a congenital heart disease. It is estimated that 2,500-3,000 children are born with a congenital heart disease every year in Sri Lanka.

We know we feel that our Rotaract friends and Rotaract experiences are memorable chapters of our lives. Yet when asked  "Why Rotaract?" we have trouble relating to the depth of our Rotaract experience. In an increasingly complex world, Rotaract provides one of the most basic human needs: the need for friendship and fellowship.
