Editorial note & President’s message

Lion Dr. Pavan Baldava 

Dear Reader, 

It gives me immense pleasure to present the first volume of Club’s Bulletin for the year 2016­17. I look                                     

forward to this year, the Centennial year of the Lions Clubs International, and the 49th year of our                                   

Club’s existence, as a remarkable one. I hope that Communique adds a feather to our cap of activities                                   

& administration by conveying the right information and paving way for meaningful interaction and                           

generation of ideas.  

I am fortunate to be at the helm of this prestigious organization for this year. This term would lead                                     

our march into the Golden Jubilee of club’s existence, and also stand as a testimony to our                                 

participation in the Lions Clubs International’s centennial celebrations and service challenge.  

I consider myself blessed to have been introduced to Lionism. What began as a simple volunteering                               

for dental health check­up & awareness programmes has become a significant milestone in my                           

journey to self. It is here where my heart is.  

You will never be able to escape from your heart. So it is better to listen to what it has to say.  

– The Alchemist 

We all belong to interesting and challenging times. The challenge of responding to needs of the                               

vulnerable sections keeps growing by the day. From medical aid & socio­economic factors to                           

environmental onslaught, we face a plethora of interlinked issues that need to be addressed. The                             

resources at our disposal are always meager as compared to the demand. It is interesting, how an                                 

organization like Lions Club ensures better utilization of existing resources and works constantly for                           

generation of new resources.  

Times have changed. So has the concept of giving! The generation before us would first set aside a                                   

portion of their cooked food to be given to the alms seeker, pet or the stray animal. Today, we keep                                       

aside yesterday’s leftovers to be given. The question is when we have a platform like Lions clubs, do                                   

we focus on distribution of available freebies / refuse or work towards generating items or services                               

based on the actual needs of the needy.  

Our motto for this year is “Learn to give”. It incorporates two things. The idea of Lions Clubs as a                                       

platform where we encourage giving, and two, by being and serving as Lion leader or member, we                                 

learn how to best utilize the existing resources, and efficiently give to the actual need in terms of                                   

time, place and person. 

I thank every member of the club for giving me this opportunity to serve as the “President”, and I                                     

hope to stand up to the expectations.

Message from Past District Governor Lion O.P. Goenka

Dear Lion Dr. Pavan Baldava, 

Lion Neelesh Vithlani started journey as a President twelve months back, has                       

come to an end. These twelve months were spent very usefully for community                         

betterment services. I would say, he has triggered a social revolution by several hectic activities. He                               

has carved out a niche for himself through selfless service, devotion to the cause and inimitable style                                 

of functioning. My complements to him and his team.  

Now, it is your turn to prove your mettle. I know your capability and you will prove. 

In the assessment of the work of Lions, we find that all that was conceived, created and carried out, in                                       

the process of lionistic activities was due to three guiding beacons the lions followed and they are                                 

vision – faith – courage. 

More specifically, Vision to see – faith to believe – courage to act. I need not amplify and interpret                                     

the same.  

But these guiding principles though substantial in values, were only abstract factors. What made                           

possible to turn abstract into concrete with effective results, were imagination – inspiration –                           

ingenuity. What I have narrated above,the three guiding principles are the three actuating attributes,                             

proved to be a combination for action namely, vision with imagination – faith with inspiration –                               

courage with ingenuity. I am sure, with these attributes, I look forward to a still more successful year                                   

ending with 50 years of the existence of our club.  

My greetings and best wishes to you and your team.  

 

Message by Lion Harilal Shah, Past President (1988-89)

Our club has successfully marched for 49 years on the path of various service                           

projects, benefitting the society at large, notably our reputed state of art                       

BLOOD BANK. Many a brilliant highly qualified professionals have dedicatedly                   

carried forward the message of service. Our Club bulletin narrates this success                       

saga and reflects the aspirations of ensuing New Team with innovative new                       

service projects. 

I congratulate the Lion President Dr.Pavan Baldava and his team of dedicated Lions, wishing them to                               

achieve the best in the forthcoming Lionistic Y ear and to bring laurels to our club.

One of the oldest service organizations in the city, we have been at the forefront

generous men and women, who have contributed their resources and built                     

bridges with other donors and similar groups in the society. The strong foundation                         

of functioning and delivery has enabled the club to stand tall for nearly fifty years
