District Governor Message
Dear Rotarians,
Happy Namaste.
At the very outset, I would like to thank each one of you for your overall contribution till date towards furthering the objectives of Rotary.
I would request each one of you to make consistent efforts to increase your reach by growing more not only in terms of number of members but also following the principle of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, so as to adapt with times. I am hopeful that your club will take member engagement to the next level, thereby, making your club irresistible for both new and existing members. Our focus should not only be confined to “Each One Bring One” but also towards “Each One Retain One”.
Please align your service projects with the annual theme and vision of RI / District leaders. Also explore ways and means to magnify the scale of your service projects, as a step towards increasing its Impact. Each Rotarian should support “The Rotary Foundation (TRF)”, irrespective of the quantum of personal contribution, so that we could do Bigger and Bolder projects across the world.
Deepti and I look forward to visit your club in Rotary Year 2023-24 and to interact with your members. Our best wishes to Team 2023-24 for an eventful and successful Rotary Year 2023-24 ahead. My personal interpretation of HOPE in the context of Rotary would be Hands, Opportunities, Projects & Experiences. Let our hearts be in the right place as we make all efforts to “CREATE HOPE IN THE WORLD”.
Warm Regards,
Jeetender Gupta
