PWANI, ALWAYS ON "GO"

PWANI ALWAYS IN FRONT LINE!

Lions Club of Dar es Salaam Pwani was always in the front line to implement fresh ideas with zeal and great success, District Governor Lion Wilson N. Ndesanjo said at the World Lunch Relay organized by the club for Lions, pupils from a blind school and an orphanage centre.

“The Pwani Club seems to be the only club in the Sub District which has heeded the call of the International President Barry J. palmer for holding the World Lunch Relay throughout the world where Lions Clubs operate,” the Governor said. He congratulated the newly formed Leo Club of Pwani (under the umbrella of L.C. Pwani) for handling the function which turned out to be lively, exciting and  with full of fun.

Club President Lion Pushpa Shah appeared to be very satisfied with the turn out of visitors and main guests who also included 2^nd Vice District Governor Lion Haiderali Gangji, several District Officers and a good number of businessmen and volunteers who supported the event.

In her speech, she observed philosophically that what ever  good things we do for others, it automatically comes back to us in one way or the other. And she added: “We must not only try to do more but to do better by cherishing the dream of  the Founder of Lionism , Melvin Jones”.

Fifteen blind young boys and girls from Uhuru Mchanganyiko Primary School led by their Matron Aisha Mkumbo and Volunteer Mohini Nathumal Sajnani appeared well dressed in their school uniform. They gave a chorus of three songs which touched the heart of almost every body at the Himalaya  Ridge Hotel.
