The Rotary Club of Lilongwe has said there is need to inculcate a culture of professionalism and leadership in young people.<\/p>\n
The club\u2019s president, Dan Kuwali, made the remarks in Lilongwe on Friday during a charter dinner for Bambino Private School Interact Club.<\/p>\n
Kuwali said the launch of the club is a fulfilment of one of the goals they had in the rotary year.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe club we chose is Bambino Private School. If you are joining rotary, you need to be more than 30 years old. But we still need to [plan for] continuity. Therefore, we focused on trying to inculcate a culture of professionalism and leadership in the young ones,\u201d Kuwali said.<\/p>\n
Interact clubs bring together young people between the ages of 12 and 18 years with the aim of developing their leadership skills \u201cwhile discovering the power of service above self\u201d.<\/p>\n
Founder of Hope for Cancer Foundation and Think Pink Malawi, Blandina Khondowe, said it is important to inculcate a culture of service in young people.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is important to instill such values in young people because we always hear that and we know it\u2019s a fact that the youngsters are the future. It is always important to do that when they are young so that it becomes a habit,\u201d Khondowe said.<\/p>\n
President of Bambino Interact Club, Kelvin Murray, said they will do more in serving the community.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is really great to have this club at our school. I am really excited. At our school we do service. Now we are looking forward to serve the community at a higher level. This is like a motivation to us. It is encouraging us to continue serving,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
