I Kavitha Mutha President Rotary club Pune camp had the privilege of serving as President during the Rotary year 2025–26, and it has truly been one of the most rewarding and memorable experiences of my Rotary journey. This year gave me the opportunity to meet many new people, build lasting friendships, and learn that the greatest happiness comes from giving and serving others.

Every aspect of the role—from planning programs, inviting guests, organizing meetings, and delivering speeches to leading various service projects—helped me grow personally and professionally. The most fulfilling moments were seeing the smiles and gratitude on the faces of beneficiaries after the successful completion of our projects.

Our cycle donation project was especially touching, as the children and their parents expressed their appreciation by gifting us vegetables and plants during Diwali. During the Millet Jatra, farmers blessed and encouraged us for promoting their efforts. Many participants in our Rotary activities appreciated our initiatives and generously contributed towards our projects.

What made this journey truly special was the outstanding teamwork and support from every club member. Their dedication ensured that I never felt overwhelmed by the responsibility of leadership. I am also grateful to the District team, the DG, AG and all their associates for their constant guidance and support. My heartfelt thanks to every member who made this year such a remarkable success
