Welcome Message from Margaret Yuen Wah CHAU 2026-27

Dear Fellow Rotarians and Friends,

With a heart full of gratitude and a deep sense of humility, I step into the role of Incoming President of the Rotary Club of Kowloon North for the Rotary year 2026–27. To be entrusted with this responsibility is both an honour and a reminder of the legacy we carry forward together.

Sixty-two years of service. Sixty-two years of fellowship. Sixty-two years of quietly but powerfully changing lives. This remarkable milestone belongs to every Rotarian who has walked this journey before us. I stand today inspired by the unwavering dedication of our past presidents and members, whose vision, compassion, and perseverance have shaped not only our club, but the communities we serve. Because of them, we do not begin anew—we build on something strong, enduring, and meaningful.

As we look ahead, I do so not with ambition alone, but with a sincere desire to listen, to connect, and to serve alongside each of you. My hope is to grow our Rotary family—welcoming new members who share our passion—so that together, our reach can extend further and our impact can deepen. I also hope to nurture stronger bonds among us, to strengthen the fellowship that makes this club not just an organisation, but a home. Beyond our borders, I look forward to fostering deeper engagement with the wider Rotary community, united by our common purpose.

Guided by Rotary’s areas of focus, we will continue to serve where it matters most—with compassion, with purpose, and with heart. I truly believe that when we come together, not as individuals but as one community, there is no limit to the good we can do.

I am mindful that I follow in the footsteps of remarkable leaders, and I carry this responsibility with both respect and determination. I may not have all the answers, but I bring with me a genuine commitment to do my best—for our club, for our community, and for the Rotary ideals we hold dear.

To my fellow Rotarians, thank you—for your trust, your friendship, and your unwavering dedication to service. You are the soul of this club. It is through your kindness, your generosity, and your belief in making a difference that Rotary continues to shine.

Let us move forward together—with open hearts, renewed purpose, and the courage to Create Lasting Impact. The journey ahead is ours to shape, and I am deeply grateful to walk it with you.

Yours in Rotary

Margaret Yuen Wah CHAU

President 2026-27
