Dear fellow Rotarians, Rotaractors, and Interactors,

First and foremost, I extend my heartfelt congratulations to all Rotarians, Rotaractors, and Interactors for the commencement of the Rotary Year 2024-25. My best wishes go out to all club leaders and members for a successful tenure ahead, following the completion of a productive Rotary Year 2023-2024.

Throughout the past year, Rotary International, District 3292, and all Rotary Clubs have diligently served our communities through various humanitarian initiatives.

I am delighted to have the opportunity to share my thoughts and happiness through the district's official website and mobile app. These platforms serve as reliable sources of Rotary-related information for District 3292.

The Rotary International President for RY 2024-2025, Stephanie A. Urchick, has called upon members to recognize and amplify our organization's ability to save lives. She unveiled the 2024-25 presidential theme, "The Magic of Rotary," urging members to infuse every project completed, every dollar donated, and every new member with this transformative magic.

As Rotarians, we engage in service projects aimed at aiding communities in need, thereby positively impacting the lives of those facing hardship. The leadership roles within Rotary, although spanning just one year, have the potential to be life-changing when we harness the capabilities of our teams and club members. Let us unite in our efforts towards enhancing humanitarian services.

I trust that all clubs within District 3292 will strive wholeheartedly to achieve the objectives of the presidential theme and district goals.

Yours in Rotary,

Rajendra Man Sherchan

District Governor, RY 2024-2025

Dear Fellow Rotarians, Rotaractors, and Interactors,

It is with immense joy that I embark on this journey with all of you, participating in impactful service projects within our communities. As we progress through the series of President's installations across our district's clubs, I’ve had the privilege of connecting with many of you, sharing our collective visions and goals.

August is a pivotal month in our Rotary calendar, dedicated to Membership and New Club Development. Strong membership is the foundation of our organization, and expanding our reach ensures we continue to serve our communities effectively.

Our district has set ambitious goals: retaining 95% of our members, increasing membership by 10%, ensuring 25% of new members are women, and establishing at least five new clubs.

Additionally, we aim to convert at least 50 Rotaractors to Rotarians. I am confident that through our collective efforts, we will achieve these targets.

Let’s welcome new members with open hearts, offering them opportunities to lead and serve.

Remember, every Rotarian brings unique skills and perspectives that enrich our community. I encourage each of you to actively engage in recruiting and mentoring new members, fostering a culture of inclusivity and service.

On August 17th, 2024, we are privileged to host a District Membership and Public Image Seminar. This event serves as a platform for learning, sharing, and building valuable connections. We are honored to have RI Director Anirudha Roychowdhury as our Chief Guest and Rotary Public Image Coordinator Sandeep Narang as a distinguished guest, both of whom are providing invaluable insights.

Together, let’s continue to strengthen our district and contribute to a brighter future through Rotary.

Yours in Rotary Service,

Rajendra Man Sherchan
District Governor, RY 2024-2025

Dear Fellow Rotarians, Rotaractors, and Interactors,

September marks Basic Education and Literacy Month, a cornerstone of Rotary’s mission to empower communities. As District 3292, we take pride in championing initiatives that foster learning and open doors for those who otherwise would not have access to quality education. This month is an opportunity for us to amplify our efforts in supporting education and literacy for all ages, from children to adults.

The ability to read and write is the foundation upon which people can build better lives. Let’s unite our efforts across the district and strive to make a measurable difference through projects focused on education and literacy.

The month's highlights include literacy projects, teacher training, and school renovations. Clubs have distributed books, started literacy classes, and launched digital literacy programs. They also provided training workshops for teachers, enhancing their learning experiences. They collaborated with local authorities to renovate classrooms and establish libraries in underserved schools.

Focus on Membership and Engagement as we continue our service efforts, let’s not forget the importance of growing and engaging our membership. September is an ideal time to involve new members by having them participate in our education and literacy initiatives. Engaged members are motivated members, and together we can achieve more. Rotary Foundation and Literacy Support Our contributions to The Rotary Foundation help fund critical literacy programs worldwide.

Let’s aim to increase our district’s contributions this month by emphasizing the direct impact that education projects have on transforming lives. I encourage each club to prioritize contributions and promote the cause among members.

Conclusion

As we move forward in this Rotary year, remember that education is the key to unlocking potential. By investing in literacy, we invest in the future. Thank you for your tireless service and commitment. Together, we can make lasting changes in the lives of many.

Dear Fellow Rotarians, Rotaractors, and Interactors,

October is Community Economic Development Month, a time to reflect on the importance of creating sustainable economic opportunities for communities. Rotary International is committed to supporting projects that promote entrepreneurship, foster local businesses, and help people acquire the skills needed to succeed. This month is a chance for District 3292 to focus on initiatives that empower individuals economically, uplift entire communities, and create magic.

Economic development isn’t just about financial growth—it’s about providing people with the tools and resources to improve their lives and contribute to the prosperity of their local economy. Let’s unite to ensure that our district plays a vital role in building more resilient, sustainable communities.

This month's highlights include various initiatives that will help in the upliftment of small business owners and entrepreneurs in underdeveloped areas, supporting women-led enterprises and boosting local economies through small-scale industry. Vocational training also continues to be a priority. In collaboration with local institutions, clubs are encouraged to start skill-building workshops for unemployed youth and women, empowering individuals with marketable skills. Recognizing the vital role of agriculture in rural economies, our clubs can launch projects that will support local farmers with training in sustainable farming practices and access to better seeds and tools. By focusing on modern farming techniques, we should aim to increase productivity and create long-term income streams for farming communities.

Rotary Foundation: Investing in Economic Development 

The Rotary Foundation plays a critical role in supporting community economic development projects worldwide. I encourage each club to consider increasing its contributions this month so that we can continue to fund transformative initiatives that uplift communities economically. In months that have gone by, Rotary Clubs in our District have contributed significantly for the Annual Program Fund and the Polio Fund. These contributions make a real difference in the lives of individuals and communities. I encourage Rotary Clubs to continue making these contributions in the coming months and follow-up on the pledges they have made in regards to these funds.

Membership increment and growth

Our projects in community economic development offer fantastic opportunities for Rotarians to engage and contribute meaningfully. I encourage each club to involve as many members as possible in these efforts, as these projects provide a powerful way to build stronger ties within our Rotary family and attract new members passionate about community service. As we continued our service efforts, we increased the significant number of members in the Rotary District 3292 with the addition of 246 new enthusiastic people of action in the months of July and August . We aim to grow the membership and bring more people together to create more magic.

Conclusion

As we welcome the new month of October, let’s continue to focus on creating sustainable economic change in our communities. The work we do today in empowering individuals and fostering entrepreneurship will lead to stronger, more sustainable communities tomorrow. Thank you for your continued hard work and dedication.

Key Highlights from November

   Collaborating with multiple Rotary clubs, we are conducting cervical cancer screening camps, a crucial step in early detection and prevention of one of the most prevalent cancers affecting women in our region.
4. Rotary Youth Leadership Award (RYLA)

Our Commitment to Healing

Rotary District 3292 is committed to its mission to serve and heal communities. Through our disease prevention and treatment initiatives, we strive to spread the Magic of Rotary by bringing hope, health, and healing to those in need. With unwavering support from Rotary clubs across the district, we are rigorously working to address health challenges and transform lives. Together, we are proving that service above self can create a ripple effect of positive change, reaching even the most vulnerable.

Message from the Governor

This December, let us reflect on our shared journey of service and envision even greater accomplishments ahead. Rotary has proven that when we unite for a cause, we bring hope, health, and happiness to countless lives.

Thank you for your unwavering dedication to Service Above Self. Wishing you and your families a joyful holiday season filled with love, laughter, and meaningful connections.

Dear Rotarians and Rotaractors of District 3292, Season's greetings and best wishes for the New Year!
As the winter season wraps us in its chilly embrace, Rotary’s warmth shines through our collective efforts to bring comfort and care to those in need within our communities. December has been a vibrant and productive chapter in our Rotary journey, filled with impactful initiatives and opportunities for growth.
This month, we celebrated Disease Prevention and Treatment Month, reminding us of the profound impact we can achieve together in fostering healthier and more resilient communities. Our district has taken bold strides to address pressing health challenges, exemplifying Rotary’s unwavering commitment to service.

We also concluded the first six months of the Rotary year, completing over half of the District Governor's visits to clubs across all regions. These visits have been inspiring, showcasing the meaningful projects and initiatives undertaken by clubs throughout the district. Your dedication uplifts local communities and advances the goals of The Rotary Foundation, creating a lasting impact on lives worldwide.

December also featured the Rotary Institute in Kochi, Kerala, where the Council of Governors and their spouses emphasized the value of regional collaboration, leadership development, and stronger connections within Rotary. Specialized training sessions for our District Governor-Elect and District Governor-Nominee have further laid the groundwork for dynamic future leadership.

Across the district, impactful initiatives thrived. Region 7 hosted a Vibrant Club Workshop, sparking meaningful conversations on enhancing club performance and community engagement. Meanwhile, Regions 1, 2, and 3 collaborated on Intercity Meetings focused on Healthy Aging, offering valuable insights and fostering connections among members.

Looking ahead, the introductory meeting for the 17th District Conference was also held this month. I am excited for this year’s conference, scheduled for March 21-23, 2025, in the Kathmandu Valley. For those who have yet to register, I warmly encourage you to join us in this remarkable event to celebrate, learn, and strengthen bonds of camaraderie with fellow Rotarians.

As we step into January, our focus shifts to Vocational Service. I trust that club leaders are already planning and organizing projects to support the underprivileged in our communities, continuing Rotary’s legacy of service.

Finally, as we welcome the year 2025, let it be a fresh beginning filled with hope, inspiring the world with peace, prosperity, and happiness. Wishing you all a joyful New Year, meaningful resolutions, and impactful service in the months ahead.
Cheers!

Dear Fellow Rotarians, Rotaractors, and Interactors,

As we welcome the month of February, we also embrace the opportunity to celebrate

and reflect on one of Rotary's most significant areas of focus: Peace and Conflict

Prevention/Resolution. This theme resonates deeply with Rotary's mission to foster

understanding, goodwill, and global harmony.

The Essence of Peace in Rotary

Rotary's commitment to peace is not limited to the absence of conflict but extends to building sustainable frameworks that promote social equity, justice, and mutual

understanding. As Rotarians, Rotaractors, and Interactors we are uniquely positioned to

lead initiatives that cultivate peace in our communities and beyond. Through service,

dialogue, and collaboration, we can transform potential conflicts into opportunities for

growth and unity.

Empowering Change through Action

This month, I encourage all clubs within our district to prioritize activities that align with

peacebuilding and conflict resolution. Whether it is organizing educational workshops,

facilitating interfaith dialogues, or supporting community projects that address social

disparities, every effort contributes to a more harmonious society.

Consider these actionable ideas for your clubs:

·       Educational Seminars and Workshops: Host discussions on conflict resolution techniques, emotional intelligence, or community mediation strategies.

·      Youth Engagement Programs: Empower young leaders to champion peace through leadership training and mentorship programs.

·      Community Outreach: Partner with local organizations to address pressing issues such as domestic violence, bullying, or discrimination.

·      Global Grants: Utilize Rotary Foundation grants to implement projects that address the root causes of conflict and promote peace in underserved regions.

Sharing Inspiring Stories

I am inspired by the impactful work already being carried out by clubs in our district.

From initiating dialogue platforms for marginalized communities to supporting education

programs in conflict-affected areas, these efforts exemplify the power of collective

action.

The Role of Each Rotarian and Rotaractor

Peace begins with each of us and is reflected in how we communicate, the partnerships

we forge, and the service we render. Let us commit to being ambassadors of peace in

our daily lives and extend this commitment to every project we undertake.

A Call to Action

As we strive to make our communities and the world more peaceful, let us remember

that change starts with a single step. By working together, we can be the architects of a

future where conflicts are resolved with compassion, differences are celebrated, and

peace prevails.

Thank you for your unwavering dedication and for embodying Rotary's core values in all that you do. Let us continue to "Create Hope in the World" through our actions, service, and commitment to peace and keep alive the power of Magical Rotary.

Yours in Rotary Service,

Rtn. Rajendra Man Sherchan

Dear Fellow Rotarians, Rotaractors, and Interactors,

As we step into March, Rotary’s designated month for Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH), I extend my warm greetings to each of you. This month serves as a powerful reminder of the impact we can create when we work towards ensuring access to clean water, adequate sanitation, and proper hygiene for all.

Access to clean water and sanitation is a fundamental human right, yet millions of people around the world, including many in our own communities, continue to struggle with waterborne diseases due to lack of safe drinking water and inadequate sanitation facilities. Rotary has long been at the forefront of addressing these issues, and this month, I encourage each club to rededicate efforts toward sustainable WASH initiatives.

Across District 3292, we have seen inspiring projects that reflect our unwavering commitment to this cause. From building and refurbishing community water supply systems to conducting hygiene awareness programs in schools, your dedication has been commendable. Let us continue our efforts by:

1. Enhancing Sustainable Water Solutions – Investing in projects that provide clean and safe drinking water to underserved communities.
2. Promoting Hygiene Awareness – Educating children and families about proper handwashing and sanitation practices to prevent diseases.
3. Supporting School Sanitation Programs – Ensuring that schools have functional toilets and handwashing facilities, creating a healthier learning environment.
4. Collaborating for Greater Impact – Partnering with local governments, NGOs, and experts to amplify our reach and effectiveness.

I urge clubs to organize impactful activities such as community clean-ups, water conservation campaigns, and sanitation drives to ensure a lasting impact. Together, through small but significant actions, we can make a difference in the lives of those who need it most.

March also marks the approach of the final quarter of our Rotary year. As we reflect on the progress we have made, let us continue striving towards our annual goals with renewed enthusiasm. I encourage every club to strengthen membership, enhance public image, and align projects with Rotary’s core areas of focus.

Let us remain united in our service and commitment to creating a cleaner, healthier future for all. I look forward to seeing your inspiring efforts throughout this month and beyond.

We also have our 17^th District Conference from March 21 - 23 , 2025 in The Plaza, Lalitpur, where I hope to see you all. Let us all participate to make our 17^th District Conference a huge success.
