McAllen, TX – On a bright afternoon at the Pasta Company in North McAllen, Rotarians gathered for an inspiring talk by Dr. Zehra Surani, the newly appointed District Governor of Rotary District 5930. With a background as an industrial and organizational psychology, Dr. Surani brought a wealth of knowledge and passion for service and education to the audience.

Her speech, rich with personal anecdotes and motivational insights, began with the story of her transformative journey in Rotary. Dr. Surani recounted a pivotal moment when she visited an artificial limb center in Karachi, Pakistan, where she witnessed firsthand the profound impact Rotary projects have on people’s lives. This experience shifted her perspective from being just a member of the Rotary Club to becoming a committed Rotarian, driven by the organization’s core values of service above self.

Dr. Surani emphasized the importance of understanding one’s purpose within Rotary, urging members to reflect on their own “why” and to share their stories of service and motivation. “The real magic happens when you believe in something bigger than yourself,” she declared, highlighting the power of collective action and the potential to create lasting change in the world.

She also shared details about the various service projects supported by Rotary, from the artificial limb center in Pakistan to literacy initiatives in Bali, Indonesia, and free eye transplants in Honduras. Her stories illustrated the global reach and diversity of Rotary’s efforts, underscoring the organization’s commitment to addressing critical issues across the globe.

The speech concluded with a call to action for all Rotarians to engage actively in their communities, foster collaboration, and continuously adapt to new challenges. Dr. Surani encouraged members to participate in upcoming district events and initiatives, such as the Peace Pole installation and the World Peace Day summit, to further enhance their impact and strengthen the Rotary network.

Dr. Surani’s address was not just a testament to her leadership and vision but also a powerful reminder of the magic that can happen when individuals unite for a common purpose. Her words left the audience inspired and ready to take on new challenges, embodying the Rotary spirit of being “dream catchers” for those they serve.

As Rotary District 5930 moves forward under Dr. Surani’s leadership, the community can expect continued dedication to service, innovation, and a commitment to making a difference locally and globally.
