16. WHAT IS ROTARY? Today, I am blessed to be able to serve mankind, poor children, provide them clean drinking water, administer polio drops, provide relief to handicapped, help differentially abled, underprivileged, help downtrodden, and make difference in the lives of those we touch. Above all Rotary has given me great sense of self satisfaction. I too was greedy and spent far more time in pursuit of the goals that should matter least. However, Rotary showed me the way to serve and to live a meaningful life. Presidents Elect Training Seminar | 16 District 3011

17. WHAT IS ROTARY? Rotary is an opportunity and a platform that enables Rotarians to achieve much more in their immediate community and the world, than they can as individuals. What and how much is achieved depends on the individual members, the Rotary Club, and most importantly, it's leadership. It is a good and oft repeated adage, ‘What you get out of Rotary depends on what you put into Rotary’? Presidents Elect Training Seminar | 17 District 3011
