months we have exceeded the targeted 60% attendance. We can still do better in this area. In November 2024 we were able to elect our future leaders. I once again congratulate our President Nominee Rtn Elizabeth Mushabe and Our President Nominee Designate Rtn Christine Mukasa-Mugerwa. I wish them the best as they prepare for leadership. Our club participated in the Rotary cancer run with record numbers. We also recently participated in DISCON in large numbers. All this together with the club’s social media publicity have continued to enhance the club’s visibility. Our Buddy Groups have also been very active this year. They helped in managing fellowships and organized social activities. Every Buddy group contributed over $1200 to Polio Plus. Buddy Group leaders have been at the forefront of mobilizing our members for Club activities. Thank you Club Members. Thank you Board Members and Advisors. Thank you AG Moses Kafero for your support and guidance. Thank you DGE Geoffrey Kitakule, PDG Xavier Sentamu and PAG Charles Odaga for all your encouragement.

Service Projects: We set out to continue with the Naguru Remand Home Skilling project and carry out five other projects. From supporting education at St Joseph’s Primary School Gulu, St. Peters Nsambya and healthcare initiatives at Nawangisa, Busesa, to promoting skilling for juveniles at Naguru, our club has been at the forefront. These were all non-global projects funded by our members to the tune of 100Million. These accomplishments are a testament to the tireless efforts of our members and partners. Family of Rotary: We are a family. We rejoice together in good times, we grieve together in bad times, and our Family of Rotary has led us well in all these times. We all remember the memorable home hospitalities and the Monthly birthday cakes/flowers. Our weekly Kimeeza on Fridays has remained vibrant. These gatherings are also opportunities for us to recruit new members to our family of Rotary. On occasions of loss of our dear ones, our members have mobilized to do what we need to do. Thank you Family of Rotary.
