On Tuesday, July 1st, 2025, the vibrant neighborhood of Lubowa pulsated with energy as the Rotary family converged for a spectacular Action Year launch.

The setting was outside the usual meeting room with freshness and a welcoming ambiance that promised a great evening. The stars aligned perfectly, with the Action Year's start date coinciding with the Rotary Club of Lubowa's meeting day. One guest quipped that RC Lubowa had 'bribed' to bring about this coincidence. The anticipation was palpable, and the excitement was contagious!

A Night to Remember

PDG Ken Wycliffe Mugisha took center stage, sharing inspiring tips on kick-starting the year with purpose and passion. She highlighted the various causes that Rotary has championed globally and in Uganda. Immunization against Polio. Fight against Malaria. The fight against Cancer. The Mengo Rotary Blood bank and so many others within the 7 areas of focus. The IPP, Rhona, fresh from her award-winning tenure, handed over the reins to her successor, amidst thunderous applause. The room was abuzz with Rotarians and guests, all eager to embark on this new journey together.
