| Minutes of Meeting | Our latest session brought together the RCPC family for an evening filled with service, generosity, and camaraderie. President Brig. PKM Raja opened the meeting by leading us in the National Anthem and extended a warm welcome to all. The "Salute to the Spirit of Giving" segment followed, honoring the generosity of Rtn. Yogesh Shah, Rtn. PP Madhu Rathi, Ms. Dolly Desai, Rtn. Oni Kakajiwala, and Rtn. Sanjiv Agarwal. These contributions are the backbone of our projects, enabling us to drive impactful initiatives within the community. We celebrated with warm wishes Birthdays of Rtn. Pres. Brig. PKM Raja, Rtn. Arun Jindal, Rtn. PP Dr. Ramesh Dumbre, Rtn. Dr. Ashok Bhave, R’Ann Sweety Kalra, and R’Ann Beena Shroff. Here’s to a year filled with joy and accomplishments for each of them! Among the project highlights was the success of the District Project - Chatrachaya, which provided umbrellas to street vendors, allowing them to continue their work despite challenging weather conditions. Rtn. Rakesh Makhija, Rtn. Nitin Rajore, and Rtn. PP Ajay Dubey led the way with their generous support, making a difference in the lives of local vendors. Another impactful moment was the distribution of spectacles to students and staff at schools near St. Patrick Church and Netaji Subhashchandra Bose School. It’s inspiring to see how small gestures, like the gift of clear vision, can have a profound impact on lives. Our visit to Ghorpadi village highlighted the importance of sustainable community support, with RCPC initiating improvements in primary schools, anganwadis, and facilities for children with special needs. This visit laid the groundwork for establishing a Rotary Community Corps in Ghorpadi, which will empower the local community to drive positive change. Operation Dynamo, presented by PP Suhas Merchant, aimed to propel our club to the top of district rankings. Suhas outlined key areas where we can improve our score and elevate RCPC to the number one club in the district, encouraging everyone to engage actively and contribute to our shared goals. As we concluded, a special announcement set the stage for next week: our Nominating Committee election will take place on Saturday, November 16, 2024, with physical voting. Please be sure to attend as we elect our new committee members. Looking forward to seeing everyone at the polls and continuing our journey of service and fellowship together! |
