“Lead with Impact – Serve with Passion”
Dear Rotary family,
Dear Rotaractors and friends,
As we begin this new Rotary year, I invite each one of you to embrace a simple yet powerful call: Lead with Impact – Serve with Passion.
In alignment with the vision of Rotary International and this year’s presidential message, “Create Lasting Impact,” we are reminded that everything we do should go beyond the moment—toward sustainable, meaningful change in the lives we touch.
Across our diverse and vibrant 9-country district, we are united by one vision—to energize our clubs, empower our members, and create meaningful, visible change in our communities.
This year is not about doing more.
It is about doing what we do—better, stronger, and with purpose.
We will grow. Not just in numbers, but in connection and belonging—welcoming young professionals, Rotaractors, and alumni into a Rotary that inspires and retains.
We will give. By strengthening our support to The Rotary Foundation, we transform generosity into sustainable impact—from global grants to the promise of a polio-free world.
We will empower youth. Because they are not only the future of Rotary—they are its present energy and leadership. Through mentorship, leadership programs, and new peace initiatives, we will walk alongside them.
We will tell our story. Every club, every project, every life touched—these are stories that deserve to be seen, heard, and celebrated. A stronger public image means a stronger Rotary.
We will innovate. By reimagining our clubs, strengthening strategic planning, and responding to real community needs, we ensure Rotary remains relevant, dynamic, and impactful.
And above all, we will learn and lead—with integrity, with ethics, and with a deep commitment to service and international understanding.
My dear friends,
This year is a shared journey.
A journey toward stronger clubs, engaged members, inspired youth, and visible impact.
A journey toward a more united and purposeful district.
Together, let us not just serve—
Let us inspire.
Let us lead.
Let us create impact that lasts.
And in full alignment with our global Rotary vision, we are here to Create Lasting Impact.
Because together,
We Lead with Impact… and Serve with Passion.
Thank you.
May Monla Chmaitily
District Governor 2026-2027
