Saturaday, October 18, 2008, was a remarkable day in the lives of Leos at Makerere University and Kampala Central Lions club. It is the day the Leos club at Makerere was chartered.
The presentation of the charter was preceeded by a blood donation exercise conducted in conjunction with Nakasero Blood bank where over 15 units of blood were collected. In the photo left, Lions are seen in line with leos waiting to donate blood.
The blood donation exercise was followed by a match past led by the band from Nsibirwa hall gardens to the faculty of Food science and technology where the induction and installation ceremonies took place. I bring to you, the moments during the match as caught on camera;
Ready to walk the line of service.
A presidential perspective of walking the line of service.
Disability is not a limitation to servive
Leading the walk of service
The kids could not accept to be left behind and they participated enthusiastically in the match.
The induction and installation ceremony was conducted by Ln. Anaclet Turyakira a certified Guiding lion. He advised the Leos and installed officers to follow the principals guiding the service of lionism. He called upon them to serve selflessly in their communities. He also challenged them to be the role models for their fellow youth and to champion the causes agaist drug abuse, environmental degradation, prostitution, moral decay and other social vices.
The president of the Lions club of Kampala Central- the sponsoring club, advised the Leos to lead by example and work towards the success of the club. She also challenged them to be the flag bearers in the fight against moral decadence at the university and our communities atlarge.
