Our Sponsored Clubs
Growing Rotary’s Impact Across Nepal
Since our charter in 1985, the Rotary Club of Patan has been committed to expanding Rotary’s reach and impact throughout Nepal. Through the sponsorship of new Rotary, Rotaract, and Interact clubs, we have helped cultivate emerging leaders, engage youth in meaningful service, and strengthen communities across our region.
Each club we sponsor represents our dedication to Rotary’s mission of bringing together business and professional leaders to provide humanitarian service, encourage high ethical standards, and help build goodwill and peace in the world.
