Words of Wisdom from Past Presidents

MJF Lion Arjun Pokhrel President LIY 2017/18

Dear Fellow Lions,

It’s a great privilege to have the opportunity to be President of Lions Club of Pokhara Annapurna. I would like to thank everyone for your support and fellowship. We are at the beginning of Lion year 2017/18 and which is the centennial of Lions International.

I would like to take this opportunity to celebrate centennial year with all the creative activities to support District 325B1’s Governor’s theme “Journey to Excellence”.

Since our establishment 30 years ago, Lions Club of Annapurna has experienced many tides of changes. Our deliveries in the past were mainly in the area of education for the poor including water, sanitation, health and skilled development training for women. As time passes, we have changed our deliveries as per need. Again, education will be in the top priority in my plan of action for LIY 2017/18. Coincidently our District Governor has also listed education sector on his top priority, We have just been through a devastating earthquake on 25 April, 2015 resulting loss of 9,000 plus people and destroyed 600,000 plus structures in our country. Still we did not give up our hopes.

 I am glad and proud to say that all of our Lions fellows were together at those difficult times. Our deliveries on relief work were just in time when needed. We were serious towards the goal and accomplishment was not a problem. Our noted contribution apart from instant relief work LC Annapurna was able to rebuild 7 Schools in earthquake- affected districts to date. It was an inspiring lesson for us. I can see our ability to get things done. I believe we are here not only complete the job but also to deliver the quality service. Therefore, my theme for the L/Y 17/18 is “Race for Quality Service”.

I believe this centennial year 2017 will bring more energy for us to do something for good cause. I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to all our senior Lion leaders for their guidance and encouragement. We are thankful to our partners from all around the globe for their help and assistance in our yearly health camp. I look forward to receive cooperation and same teamwork as in the past.
