Welcome
A word from our president
Dear fellow Rotarians and guests,
I am glad to begin this Rotary year with you, from 1 July 2025 to 30 June 2026, in a spirit filled with hope and energy.
The world is seeing an unprecedented rise in humanitarian crises, and emergencies are becoming more frequent and harder to resolve. Our role as Rotarians has never been more vital. Let us make this a year of service above self — a year in which we build meaningful connections and take on sustainable work that leaves a lasting mark on the lives of people who have least.
This year I want to give every member a strong club experience: a club that welcomes new ideas and new projects, and that stays responsive to what our community actually needs.
The Rotary Club of Cairo Cosmopolitan is an English-speaking club, and our members are a mix of Egyptians and expatriates of many nationalities. You are very welcome at our weekly meetings.
Let us adopt the motto of the new Rotary year — Unite for Good — and let us grow together.
