By Barry Villamil, Past President, Rotary Club of Pearlridge
I was truly honored to attend today’s final Pearl City High School Interact Club lunch meeting for the 2025-2026 school year. 2025-2026 PCHS Interact Club President Jaylin Shirafuji presided over the lunch meeting while recognizing the club’s outstanding club projects during the school year that benefitted those in need here in Hawaii, USA, and Internationally.
Outgoing President Shirafuji also introduced the 2026-2027 incoming Officers, Board members and Chairs led by incoming President Reagan Chang. PCHS Interact Club service projects and fundraisers for 2026-2027 were also discussed. During the summer, Service project committees will coordinate and prepare to implement planned service projects when the new school year begins.
In celebration of May Day, and outstanding PCHS Interact Club Leadership, I was honored to present lei to outgoing President Jaylin Shirafuji and incoming President Reagan Chang.
Mahalo to PCHS Interact Advisor Mr. Dane Souza for his leadership, dedication, and commitment to the success of the PCHS Interact Club who annually makes a difference for those in need in communities around the world.
The Heart and Soul of Rotary Youth Leadership is the Love, Caring, and Compassion that they Share with others.
SERVICE ABOVE SELF
PROUD TO BE A ROTATIAN
