As we all know the main motto of the interact club is Service above Self, which basically means you do more for others and towards the welfare of the society, than you do to yourself, which includes sacrificing a lot and dealing with many opportunity costs in your life. Being a part of the interact club has shown different flying colors in my life and has given me the chance to explore myself more and more each day.
My most remarkable experience includes performing during Tihar (a five-day-long festival celebrated in Nepal that comes soon after Dashain. Among the Newars, it is popularly known as Deepawali or Swanti.) This was when the Interact club hosted small performances in different houses around the valley, where we sang different songs and also danced in groups, this was a splendid opportunity for me to showcase my talent and experience what it feels like to perform in front of a big crowd. This gave me a great chance to know the culture and “Interact” with people in the society; I guess this is what the club is really good at doing, “Interacting” with people to experience their rich culture, and helping them when they are in need. We collected a lot of money from this event and donated to a charity. Overall it was very exciting to be a part of the Interact club and I suggest all of you to join it.
