Brighten up your website with this new color

Our focus has always been to help you with your public brand. What you portray as your image is exactly how people perceive your club to be, and it plays a huge role in your PR efforts. It starts with your website, a place to showcase your own uniqueness and clubs identity.

Best of all, this new color palette is in line with the Visual Identity guidelines for Rotaract clubs. You'll soon see the release of many new and modern themes to help get where you want your visual identity to be. Stay tuned!

Next-Gen Themes: The Feedback!

Just under two months ago, we released our brand new Next-Gen website themes (with many more on the way!), and the feedback we've received so far has been nothing short of overwhelming. For that, we must thank you!

Around 200 clubs have already switched to the new themes. A lot of clubs have garnered inspiration and made the design their own, which is our favorite thing to see. We always say that website templates are like a canvas which you can build on. Whether it be by adding the all-new custom carousel, videos or by updating the CSS stylesheet - the point is to be able to represent your club with a website you can be proud of.

Check out a few websites using the Next-Gen themes!
