Interact Club
Interact stands for International Action and is a Rotary-sponsored service club giving young people an opportunity to participate in fun and meaningful service projects while developing leadership skills and meeting new friends.
At Hendersonville High School, the Interact Club recently has focused on service projects promoting conservation and the environment. Students have collected the school’s recycling once a week, cleaned Sullivan Park once a month, and organized a booth at EarthFest to teach about the importance of recycling paper. One club member serves on the City of Hendersonville’s Environmental Sustainability Board.
Hendersonville HS club members meet twice monthly and recorded nearly 400 service hours during the 2024-25 school year’s fall and winter months. On occasion the club provides volunteers for other causes – for example, for Salvation Army Bell Ringing. After Hurricane Helene, students collected and delivered supplies both to people in need and the Humane Society.
