When I first joined Rotary, I was delighted that I could practise service and leadership in an organised way. Through a systematic approach, Rotary has been able to develop a world-wide network of givers and build fine channels to take every penny to the deserving. Outside Rotary, our charity is offered to people who seek. In Rotary, our offerings are taken to hands that don’t even know where and how to seek.

My journey with Rotary began in 1998, and over the past 25 years, it has been a source of heartwarming memories. Through serving the community, we have not only impacted lives but also made some great friends. For me, the camaraderie among Rotarians will always be the highlight for me. Moreover, my role as the District Governor brought life-changing experiences. One standout moment was Rotary Day 2021. Through our health camps, we positively impacted over 50,000 individuals and it truly reaffirmed the ‘power of membership’ and promise of unity. I remain dedicated to the service and fellowship that define the Rotary spirit

My preferred charity is RF (I) because I feel that the foundation reaches the downtrodden anywhere and everywhere in the world. A big example is how the foundation took it as a challenge and almost removed Polio from the face of the world.

Every dollar I give goes to the benefit of some child, rich or poor, protecting them from Polio. I prefer this foundation because one man cannot change the world. A massive organisation like Rotary only can achieve it. RF (I) is for not only a healthier world but also for a world free of the poor and sick.
