One of the biggest misconceptions about Rotarians is that it is an organisation for rich people. But that is wrong, said Robert Kavuma, the newly installed President of the Rotary Club of Kisugu-Victoria View.
“Although there is nothing wrong with being rich, and no one should apologise for that, Rotary is not only for the rich,” Kavuma said. “What is required in Rotary is not wealth, but the will to serve above self. That willingness to help when you come across a person in need, that is all it takes.”
Kavuma further reminded guests that Rotarians are not only volunteers, but ones who pay to volunteer.
The installation, held at the Molover House in Kisugu, was done by Past District Governor Steven Mwanje, with Kavuma becoming the 10th President of the club, which was chartered in 2016. He took over from now Immediate Past President (IPP) Phoebe Kisibo.
