First BY alumni meet is a hit
First BY alumni meet is a hit
On February 10th, 2024, something
special happened – the very first Bhavishya
Yaan alumni meet took place at the IMC
Hall. Around 130 alumni turned up,
making the event buzz with excitement.
We were honoured by the presence of our
generous donors, Rtn. Suresh Kotak and
Rtn. Ptn. Indira, alongside other wellknown faces like D. Sivanandhan and
Manasi Salvi.
The gathering was a mix of Rotarians,
Bhavishya Yaan mentors, and friends, all
eager to catch up and celebrate.
Bhavishya Yaan, a project close to our
hearts at the Rotary Club of Bombay,
has been transforming the lives of
underprivileged students in Mumbai’s
municipal schools. We empower them
with spoken English, computer skills, and
life skills.
The event itself was a smooth operation,
thanks to careful planning. Rtn. Tara
Deshpande, our emcee for the evening,
ensured it was a night to remember. As we
reminisced about the journey of Bhavishya
Yaan, our alumni shared touching stories
and experiences.
One thing became crystal clear – Bhavishya
Yaan isn’t just a project; it’s a game-changer
for over 5000 students, helping them find
their place in society. And, it also checks all
the Rotary boxes – Community Service,
Member Involvement, and Public Image.
All our mentors were recognised for their
hard work with a well-deserved certificate.
Plus, we premiered a 90-second film on BY,

Joshi.
In a nutshell, it was an evening of
reflection, celebration, and making
memories.
