The people who know me best — my family — know that my passion for Rotary is boundless. They also know that I don’t expect them to get involved in Rotary the way I have. It’s a choice that’s up to them. But I must admit, I can’t help smiling when I see them making the right choice.

At the end of the Toronto convention last year, my 12-year-old granddaughter turned to me and said, “I’m inspired to do something. What can I do?” Naturally, I did what any other Rotarian grandfather worth his salt would do: I asked her if there was an Interact club in her school. When she discovered there wasn’t, she attempted to set one up. Unfortunately, her principal had other ideas, but we should not be deterred from helping Rotary youth programs whenever we can, because their value is beyond question. Take Rotary Youth Leadership Awards as one example. It transforms young people into more confident, focused individuals with a better understanding of the world around them — changes I was pleased to see in my 16-year-old grandson after he participated.

My family is just the beginning. Everywhere I go, I meet people of all ages whose lives have been changed by our youth programs. They tell me how, five or 15 or 25 years ago, Rotary Youth Exchange taught them a new language or introduced them to a new culture. Their eyes light up when they talk about how New Generations Service Exchange helped them advance in their career, or about how membership in Rotaract first ignited their passion for giving back to the community. Rotary’s programs for young leaders extend our ideals of service, friendship, and leadership development beyond the doors of our clubs to hundreds of thousands of young people each year. And when we serve with and for those young people — as sponsors, project partners, and mentors — it brings out the best in us, and it brings out the best in Rotary.

May is Youth Service Month, and there are many ways your Rotary club can celebrate. Sponsor an Interact club or Rotaract club,

and your Rotary club will give young people in your community the tools they need to take action, become leaders, and gain a global perspective. Team up with your local Rotaract club for a service project. Get to know the participants in Rotary’s programs for young leaders and share their stories with your community. You’ll find more ideas in this year’s Rotary Citation brochure, located under the Awards section of the Member Center at my.rotary.org. This month, let’s Be the Inspiration to the young leaders in our communities by mentoring them, engaging them, and working side by side with them on meaningful projects. It’s an investment in their future and in the world they will live in after we’re gone. And it’s work that will forever enrich their lives, and our own.

“The Rotary Wheel”Rotary Club of Kampala Vol. 6 Issue 43 Thursday 01st June, 2017

Dear members;

The New Rotary year is here. How fast it comes! But it comes with hope. It comes with promises. By the look of things, it’s going to be a good year.

I therefore take this opportunity to thank immediate past President Stephen for leading us well in the past Rotary year 2016/17, and to warmly welcome each one of you into this new Rotary year 2017/18. It’s going to be a year of greater friendships and love, greater activity, together, and therefore greater bonding and strength. It’s going to be a year of greater involvement from each of us, so we can be able to ‘’feel at rotary.’’ It’s going to be a year of growth in terms of numbers, but also growth as individuals across all spheres of learning from both within rotary and from without .

The theme of the year is; Rotary: making a difference.

How are we going to make a difference if we do not participate actively in club activities, if we do not attend fellowship regularly, if we do not give to TRF, if we do not invite our friends and colleagues to come and join rotary so we can have more hands in this noble work? District Governor Ken Mugisha and RI President Ian Riseley expect us to be the best Rotarians we can ever be this year. Let us, therefore get ready to roll up our sleeves and serve. I will give you a promise that the more you will serve with a willing heart, the happier you will get the better you will become as an individual.

We are going to continue using the Namuziga as our tool of sharing information both in the club and beyond. We appeal to you members to use this opportunity to write articles or share any such information that will uplift us as members of the club and Rotarians altogether.

May we always be willing to do that which we are asked to do. May we leave an indelible mark wherever we put our foot step for the betterment of human kind, may we serve well, so we can make a difference.

God Bless you all.

the Rotary Club of Kampala for the year ahead. They are:

1. Membership growth and member participation,

2. Service delivery in health & education, working to improve the hospital in Mukono, and

3. Improving member relations.

Fred’s aim: minimum of 2 hours each month per member, meet our goals and brand ourselves positively. This aligns with our service focus on the Hospital, by delivering education activities and service projects.

The third component of this year’s strategy is to allow for members to better know each other and build stronger ties with each other, personally and professionally. To get there, Fred will be introducing paid for adverts for member businesses in our newsletter, a forum

5 minutes during each fellowship, and other networking opportunities within delivering service to help encourage members to be a part of the projects we subscribe to.

Creative Wealth of NationsCan the Arts

Advance Development?

By Patrick KabandaDevelopment seen from a more holistic perspective

looks beyond the expansion of material means and considers the enrichment of people’s lives. The arts are an indispensable asset in taking a comprehensive approach toward the improvement of lives. Incorporating aspects of international trade, education, sustainability, gender, mental health and social inclusion, The Creative Wealth of Nations demonstrates the diverse impact of applying the arts in development to promote meaningful economic and social progress. Patrick Kabanda explores a counterintuitive and largely invisible creative economy: whilst many artists struggle to make ends meet, the arts can also be a

promising engine for economic growth.

“If nations can fully engage their creative wealth manifested in the arts, they are likely to reap major

monetary and nonmonetary

sector.”

Writing Down LossesIn the Ugandan economy, firms often times face

difficult years – year after year. This may cause a build up of negative retained earnings (accumulated losses) which weigh down the financials and ultimately become

a tool for owners to use this as a tax credit. You can write down these losses, legally – but how?

Please do get in touch to learn more.

Rotary International President’s Message

RI President 2018-2019Barry Rassin

Every two minutes, somewhere in the world, a woman dies from preventable causes related to pregnancy and childbirth. And babies whose mothers die within the first six weeks of their lives are far more likely to die themselves than babies whose mothers survive. As I’ve traveled around the world as president of Rotary, I’ve met families for whom these aren’t simply tragic statistics. But I’ve also met people who are devoting themselves to helping mothers and children — and because of them, I’m hopeful. And because many of those peo-ple are Rotarians, I’m also proud. April is Maternal and Child Health Month in Rotary, so it’s a perfect time to tell you about some things Rotarians are doing that will make you proud too.

Last fall, I paid a visit to a hospital in the town of Jekabpils, in Latvia. It’s a modern hospital, and the doctors and nurses there are caring, dedicated, and skilled. But despite all their hard work, the maternal mortality rate at the hospital had remained stubbornly high, due to a factor that was beyond their control: a lack of vital diagnostic equipment and even basic items like incubators.

And that’s where Rotary came in. Twenty-one clubs from around the world joined forces for a global grant that provided what the hospital required. And in September, when I walked into the maternity ward there, I saw state-of-the-art equipment, and I met patients who were getting the care that they needed — and that every mother and child in the world deserves to have.

In Brazil, club members worked with fellow Rotarians in Japan on a global grant project that dramatically increased the capacity of an overstretched neonatal intensive care unit. New incubators, monitors, and other equipment have enabled the local hospital to save many more babies’ lives each year.

And in Mongolia, a vocational training team from New Zealand organized instruction in emergency response techniques for doctors and midwives, set up a program that taught midwives modern best practices, and researched and wrote a culturally relevant childbirth education manual. Between 2013, when the team first went to Mongolia, and 2017, the neonatal mortality rate in the country fell from 11.2 to 9.1 per 1,000 births, and the maternal mortality rate has decreased as well.

That’s what I mean when I talk about transformational service, and it’s what Rotarians do best. Because of our networks, which span the globe; our community presence, which allows us to see what’s most needed; and our expertise, which encompasses countless skills and professions, we’re able to serve in a manner that has no equal. And we’re able to Be the Inspiration as we help those who need us most.

Creative Wealth of NationsCan the Arts

Advance Development?

By Patrick KabandaDevelopment seen from a more holistic perspective

looks beyond the expansion of material means and considers the enrichment of people’s lives. The arts are an indispensable asset in taking a comprehensive approach toward the improvement of lives. Incorporating aspects of international trade, education, sustainability, gender, mental health and social inclusion, The Creative Wealth of Nations demonstrates the diverse impact of applying the arts in development to promote meaningful economic and social progress. Patrick Kabanda explores a counterintuitive and largely invisible creative economy: whilst many artists struggle to make ends meet, the arts can also be a

promising engine for economic growth.

“If nations can fully engage their creative wealth manifested in the arts, they are likely to reap major

monetary and nonmonetary

sector.”

Writing Down LossesIn the Ugandan economy, firms often times face

difficult years – year after year. This may cause a build up of negative retained earnings (accumulated losses) which weigh down the financials and ultimately become

a tool for owners to use this as a tax credit. You can write down these losses, legally – but how?

Rotary Club of Kampala | Club 17287 | Vol 8 Issue 42 | Thursday 2nd May 2019

The people who know me best — my family — know that my passion for Rotary is boundless. They also know that I don't expect them to get involved in Rotary the way I have. It's a choice that's up to them. But I must admit, I can't help smiling when I see them making the right choice.

At the end of the Toronto convention last year, my 12-year-old granddaughter turned to me and said, "I'm inspired to do something. What can I do?" Naturally, I did what any other Rotarian grandfather worth his salt would do: I asked her if there was an Interact club in her school. When she discovered there wasn't, she attempted to set one up. Unfortunately, her principal had other ideas, but we should not be deterred from helping Rotary youth programs whenever we can, because their value is beyond question. Take Rotary Youth Leadership Awards as one example. It transforms young people into more confident, focused individuals with a better understanding of the world around them — changes I was pleased to see in my 16-year-old grandson after he participated.

My family is just the beginning. Everywhere I go, I meet people of all ages whose lives have been changed by our youth programs. They tell me how, five or 15 or 25 years ago, Rotary Youth Exchange taught them a new language or introduced them to a new culture. Their eyes light up when they talk about how New Generations Service Exchange helped them advance in their career, or about how membership in Rotaract first ignited their passion for giving back to the community. Rotary's programs for young leaders extend our ideals of service, friendship, and leadership development beyond the doors of our clubs to hundreds of thousands of young people each year. And when we serve with and for those young people — as sponsors, project partners, and mentors — it brings out the best in us, and it brings out the best in Rotary.

May is Youth Service Month, and there are many ways your

Rotaract club, and your Rotary club will give young people in your community the tools they need to take action, become leaders, and gain a global perspective. Team up with your local Rotaract club for a service project. Get to know the participants in Rotary's programs for young leaders and share their stories with your community. You'll find more ideas in this year's Rotary Citation brochure, located under the Awards section of the Member Center at my.rotary.org. This month, let's Be the Inspiration to the young leaders in our communities by mentoring them, engaging them, and working side by side with them on meaningful projects. It's an investment in their future and in the world they will live in after we're gone. And it's work that will forever enrich their lives, and our own.

ForecastingLooking ahead to understand business activity is always

difficult, however, it is important to get a ‘best case’ (even a worst case and in-between case) scenario to understand potential. Without this forecast, financiers are unable to

support a business. The most common response I get is “it is just a guess”, which is incorrect. There are methods to get

real case scenario’s which can come close to a company’s potential in any case. Reach out to find out more.

From Wealth to PowerBy: Fareed Zakaria

If rich nations routinely become great powers, Zakaria asks, then how do we explain the strange inactivity of the United States in the late nineteenth century? By 1885, the U.S. was the richest country in the world. And yet, by all military, political, and diplomatic measures, it was a minor power. To explain this discrepancy, Zakaria considers a wide variety of cases between 1865 and 1908 when the U.S. considered expanding its influence in such diverse places as Canada, the Dominican Republic, and Iceland. Consistent with the realist theory of international relations, he argues that the President and his administration tried to increase the country’s political influence abroad when they saw an increase in the nation’s relative economic power. But they frequently had to curtail their plans for expansion, he shows, because they lacked a strong central government that could harness that economic power for the purposes of foreign policy. America was an unusual power--a strong nation with a weak state. It was not until late in the century, when power shifted from states to the federal government and from the legislative to the executive branch, that leaders in Washington could mobilize the nation’s resources for international influence.

Rotary International

May is Youth Service MonthFormally known as New Generations, Youth Service Month demonstrates how Rotary’s programs are developing the next generation of leaders, providing funding to make the world a better place, and making peace a priority. And our programs are not just for club members. Learn how you can make a difference in your community through Rotary.

It’s a global movement of young leaders who are developing innovative solutions to the world’s most pressing challenges. Rotaract clubs bring together people ages 18-30 to exchange ideas with leaders in the community, develop leadership and professional skills, and have fun through service.

In communities worldwide, Rotary and Rotaract members work side by side to take action through service. From big cities to rural villages, Rotaract is changing communities like yours. Rotaract clubs decide how to organize and run their club, manage their own funds, and plan and carry out activities and service projects aligned with causes that are important to your community. Rotary club sponsors offer guidance and support and work with your club as partners in service. There are 9,522 Rotaract Clubs with 291,000 members in 177 countries.

“Rotary Youth Leadership Awards – an intensive leadership experience where young people can develop

leadership skills while having fun and making connections.”

How To Develop An Innovative RYLA

Here are some ways to discover community needs:

• Ask former participants, parents, teachers, and community leaders how your RYLA program can adapt to a changing world.

• Focus on developing young leaders who celebrate diversity, create sustainable change, and become service-minded global citizens.

• Offer a variety of RYLA experiences to different age groups.

• Provide conflict resolution strategies alongside leadership training.

Editors Note

Last week we conducted an “Interview” with our Guest, Galen Welsch. The format allowed for a more in-depth view of the topic and also more insights into who Galen was as a person. This is a fun way to engage the speaker and also the audience in more of a conversational dialog, more so than a didactic Q&A or teacher/student approach. Let us know if this is something that you enjoyed and would like to see more of.

On another note, an interesting conversation has arisen at the Board level. It is one that touches on the efficacy of having a Board in the first place; an appointed/elected group who serves the interests of the greater membership over that of our individual member interests or possibly inclusive of. When an individual seeks to challenge a Board decision, is it our responsibility to keep the original Board decision or to revisit it to accommodate already voiced concerns. The conversation is actually more about institutional capacity and governance, which would be challenged if the original Board decision was changed for a single member interest.

Do you see the Board as an effective tool to better govern our Club? What are your thoughts on how we can better serve our members?

And finally, I wanted to mention that it was great to see my business partner’s son up on stage in Dar es Salaam speaking about the 4-way Test, on invitation by District Governor Sharmila Bhatt herself. Mustafa’s intellectual capacity as such a young age is encouraging and that is mixes with a solid ethic is promising for the future of Rotary.

Welcome back to all those that travelled to Dar es Salaam, and elsewhere!
