Rotary Awareness Month


Issue 46: ROTARY CLUB KAMPALA NAALYA: CLUB NO: 84340; SINCE 14/03/2012

MENU 1. Message from RI President

RI PRESIDENT RON BURTONS JANUARY MESSAGE

We often talk about Rotary as an extended family, with all of its branches and generations. We value our youth and 3. Rotary News alumni as important members of the 4. Updates on Rotary family, and we place a special 89th DCA emphasis on service to children and families. We do this because we know 7. Guest Speaker that for any family, the youngest 8. Rotary generation is the future. That is Norms, Who absolutely true for us in Rotary. We know that it is essential for us to bring in a new generation of younger Rotary members. We've spent a lot of time talking about how to attract young professionals to Rotary but perhaps we haven't talked enough about why they don't stay. There are plenty of young people, some of them youth who do join Rotary. But when they begin families of their own, many of them leave. It isn't hard to see why: These are young professionals who are already spending more time than they want to away from their families. No matter how much they love and value Rotary, they are not going to prioritize their Rotary service over their spouses and children. Nor should we ever expect them to. This is why it is so important for us to find ways to welcome families into Rotary, so that Rotary and the family are never in competition for a Rotarian's time. Whether it's by planning service projects that involve the whole family, or being flexible about meeting places and times, we need to make Rotary service a viable option for those with young children. When you welcome families into Rotary, you're saying: Your family is not an obstacle to your Rotary service. Instead of mom or dad going out to Rotary and leaving everyone else at home, Rotary goes on the family calendar. The family of Rotary is real. Those children are going to grow up seeing their parents involved in community service, and being involved in service themselves. Not only is that a great thing for the family it's a great thing for the Rotary club, which will be helping to nurture a new generation of active, service-minded young members. At every stage of our lives and our careers, Rotary has something for all of us a way to let us do more, give more, and be more. Rotary is big enough for us all.

Creating Rotary Awarenessthe Mediums


This month is the Rotary Awareness Month and there are many ways of interpreting that. The way I understand it is the need to publicise our work and to popularize Rotary. And for many young clubs like oursthe awareness theme even extends to publicizing our existence both within the Rotary fraternity and to the community. So how does one publicise a Rotary Club and its activities? Unlike business entities, clubs have Public Relations Directors, but hardly have any resources for PR and marketing. Little wonder that so little is known of Rotary activities despite the wonderful work that is being done by clubs around the country. It is true that we will never have the resources that the MTNs of this world have to market their presencebut there are a few less costly means that clubs could consider to raise awareness. Fellowships and Club Visits: Visiting and attending other club fellowships provides a free platform to publicise ones club, its events and projects. While the audiences are largely composed of Rotarians, there are frequently non Rotarian guests for whom this information broadens their knowledge of what Rotarians are actually doing in different places. The challenge for us Rotarians during fellowships is to be less Rotarycentric or exclusive in our vocabulary and learn to speak about Rotary, our values and our projects in simpler and user friendly terms. Literature: The reading culture in this country leaves a lot to be desired and yet nothing beats the written word. At Kampala Naalya, we have a weekly newsletter that has attempted to provide information on Rotary activities and the Club itself in bite -sizes. We distribute the newsletter both digitally to both Rotarians and non Rotarians and in hardcopy to all guests that attend our weekly fellowship. This way, it finds itself in homes and offices where other people can get to learn more about Rotaryboth the serious and fun stuff. Website and social media platforms: Nothing beats social media, if we want to reach the younger generation and the Rotarians of tomorrow. Social media networks particularly Facebook, Twitter and ofcourse a website are your best choices for marketing your Rotary Club. At RC Kampala-Naalya, we even live tweet our guest presentations and in case of events, post photos on Facebook. We also have a Whatsapp group through which we share information and jokesmaking Rotary both easily accessible and fun. Branding : Signage at the Clubs home, banners wherever there are outreach projects and T-shirts are a must. At RC KampalaNaalya, we have bags that are branded with our logo and have become a conversation opener about the Club. These are only a few waysthere are many others

LAST WEEK IN FELLOWSHIP

Rotary International News

My Rotary Journey
Our Guest Speaker last week was Rtn Robert Rutaagi who shared the story of his Rotary journey and the factors that motivated him. Like many other people, his first encounter with Rotarians left him with the impression that Rotary was for the more affluent members of society. This was however later countered when he, while working in Kenya, became the 1st East African scholar to benefit from the Rotary International Scholarships.

RI President-elect Gary C.K. Huang chose Light Up Rotary as his theme for 201415. Huang was inspired by the teachings of Chinese philosopher Confucius who said: "It is better to light a single candle, than to sit and curse the darkness."
"There are so many problems in the world, so many people who need help. Many people say, 'There's nothing I can do.' So they sit there doing nothing. Meanwhile everything stays dark," Huang told the 537 district governors and their spouses and partners who are attending the 2014 International Assembly in San Diego, California. "The Rotary way is the Confucius way. The Rotary way is to light a candle. I light one, you light one, 1.2 million Rotarians light one. Together, we light up the world," said Huang, who is a member of the Rotary Club of Taipei in Taiwan. After announcing his theme at the opening session of the five-day training meeting, Huang urged club members to Light Up Rotary in the coming year by hosting a Rotary Day in their community and including local Rotaract and Interact members in their service projects. "How you Light Up Rotary is up to you," Huang said. "You know where you are strong, you know what your community needs, and you know how you can help." Huang also shared his membership goal of increasing membership to 1.3 million members. He is encouraging Rotarians to start with their spouses and family members.

His initial admiration for Rotarians, gratitude for the Scholarship and engagement with highly respected members of society who were Rotarians are what eventually lured him to join the Rotary Club of Kampala (Arch).

The rest is history. Rtn Rutaagi, his mentors and Embassy members of Kampala Arch then embarked on a 11. Ms. Kathie Lungiwe Inflate Africa mission of expanding Rotary in Uganda with 12. Mr. Ronald LubulwaInflate Africa great zeal, despite misgivings from colleagues in 13. Mr. Paddy Turyahabwe both Kenya and Tanzania. Rtn Rutaagi has since held several positions in Rotary including serving as President of RC Kampala Arch and later Charter President of Kampala day Break. He is well known for the establishment of several new Rotary Clubs including Kampala-Naalya where he served as the District Governors Special Representative. In addition to expanding Rotary in Uganda, his dream is to see Uganda becoming a Rotary District in its own right.
