THE INSTALLATION OF CECILIA LEE, THE 65TH PRESIDENT OF INNER WHEEL KL WAS SURPRISINGLY SIMPLE, FAST AND EFFECTIVE!

The outgoing president Elena Teoh simply installed Cecilia Lee by placing a medallion round her neck and in turn Cecilia pinned another badge to signify Elena was now a past president!

The Inner Wheel Club of Kuala Lumpur

The Installation of Mrs Cecilia Lee as the 65th President of the Inner Wheel Club of Kuala Lumpur on 10 June 2013.

President 2013-2014 : Cecilia Lee
District Chairman 2012-2013 : Juanita  Lee

The Inner Wheel Club of Kuala Lumpur is part of International Inner Wheel, a non-profit voluntary organisation made up exclusively of lady members over 18 yrs of age. It has more than 100,000 members, in 168 districts over 4,000 clubs spanning over 100 countries. It is one of the largest women’s organizations in the world.

Inner Wheel was formed 88 years ago by Mrs Margarette Golding, wife of a Manchester Rotarian in United Kingdom, with the object of fostering friendship and to assist with community projects undertaken by the Rotary clubs. While Inner Wheel works in close association with the Rotary movement, it remains autonomous as a distinct service organization. 

The aims and ideals of Inner Wheel are Friendship, Service and International Understanding.
             
The Inner Wheel Club KL was chartered in 1949.  It belongs to Inner Wheel District 330 which has 16 Clubs located in Peninsula Malaysia. The Club has 76 members and we meet on the 1st Thursday of each month at 2.00pm, at the Royal Selangor Club, Bukit Kiara, Kuala  Lumpur.

Over the years, the Club has raised funds to carry out projects locally, benefiting the needy and less fortunate, children and the elderly as well as the physically and mentally challenged.  Among the many organizations are:

·        Rumah Amal Cahaya Tengku Ampuan Rahimah
·        The Pain & Palliative Care Centre, Hospital Selayang
·        Paediatric Oncology Ward Kuala Lumpur General Hospital
·        Spastics Children’s Association of Selangor and Wilayah Persekutuan,
·        Malaysian Mental Health Association
·        Montfort Girls Home                                     
·        Gurupuri Sikh Welfare Home and Sikh Welfare Society,
·        St John’s Ambulance,
·        Orang Asli community in Janda Baik,
·        Persatuan Kanak –Kanak Istimewa Kajang,
·        Financial assistance to SEGI University College scholarship holders

Internationally, we have donated towards education for children in Mongolia, purchase of winter clothes and shoes as well as towards green house projects , helped disaster victims in Myanmar, Sri Lanka, and Szechuan, China. We have also helped children whose parents are afflicted with AIDS in Chiangmai, Thailand, as well as providing fresh water supply to a school in Baguio, Philippines.

In keeping with the Inner Wheel ideals of ‘Friendship and Service’, the Club continues to blaze a trail, a trail marked with the footprints of many members who cared, who had courage,  and  who took action.  Often they have given without recognition and with no expectation of it and they continued on, knowing the great personal reward that comes from serving others.
