Hundred Per Cent Rotarian
In recognition of Rtn. Hiren Kara’s 100% attendance
AS A SECOND-GENERATION ROTARIAN, I WAS INVOLVED WITH THE WORLD OF ROTARY AS AN INTERACTOR FROM CAMPION SCHOOL AND AS A ROTARACTOR FROM THE ROTARACT CLUB OF BOMBAY. Both these clubs are sponsored by our Rotary Club. I have led both clubs and served on Rotaract District 314 for two years.
After leaving Rotaract I served in a few other organisations close to my heart like The International Vegetarian Union, Beauty Without Cruelty and Peta India amongst others when Rtn. Jimmy Pochkanawalla invited me to join our club.
I believe in the ideals of Rotary. Since joining, I have chaired a committee every year besides being a member of other committees and served on the Board for three years.
Getting involved is the best way of enjoying Rotary. In case I have not been able to attend our regular meeting, I make it a point to make up by attending other club meetings. Therefore, my attendance is hundred percent every year, from the time I joined 21 years ago. Some clubs have invited me to address them.
Bijal (my better half ) joins me in serving Rotary through Bhavishya Yaan and Gender Equality. My father, wife, daughter and myself have all become Paul Harris fellows. I have made many good friends in Rotaract which continue today and in Rotary which we cherish.
