The commitment is actually not that huge—there are many clubs, and many of them are quite small, meaning that every year ~20% of members are board members, and people usually do not want to be board members multiple times, so even a year after joining you can make your way up with ambition and drive.
My hope is absolutely to aim for cause prioritization within Rotary—and Rotarians I spoke to are quite keen on the idea! No one likes being ineffective!
(Yes, that’s often the case when incentives are poor—I think things would be different if you were given a budget and asked to create maximum impact with guidance from someone experienced, a la Charity Elections!)
Thanks, Allison!
