Rotary Club of Kololo-Kampala Installation Magazine 2026: A New Chapter of Leadership, Legacy and Lasting Impact
Two Leaders. One Vision. A Shared Commitment to Service.
Every Rotary year brings a moment of renewal—a time to celebrate the journey behind us, honour those who have served, and welcome new leaders who carry the responsibility of shaping the future. This Installation Edition of the Rotary Club of Kololo-Kampala Magazine captures one such special moment: the celebration of leadership, partnership, fellowship, and the enduring spirit of “Service Above Self.”
As the Rotary Club of Kololo-Kampala welcomes President Dominic Tumwesigye and the Rotaract Club of Kololo welcomes President Vianney Mpiima for the Rotary Year 2026/2027, this edition celebrates more than a change of leadership. It celebrates the strength of the Rotary family—a partnership between experience and youthful energy, tradition and innovation, wisdom and bold ideas.
Together, these two leaders represent the continued journey of service that has defined the Rotary Club of Kololo-Kampala and its Rotaract family. Their installation marks a new chapter built on the foundation of those who served before them and driven by a shared commitment to creating lasting impact in communities.
