A family in Rotary
Every family has its own Rotary traditions. Our’s began when my father took me to a polio event when I gave the drops as a young volunteer. Since then, we strive to find every opportunity to introduce our family to Rotary. And one of our family’s traditions is to take our daughters and grandsons to the Rotary.
Mr.Udaya brings Rotary principles to his work as the past president(2016-17) of his club (Rotary Club of Kathmandu West)— a career he considers “an extension of our Legacy”.
“The Four-Way Test” that my father taught me drove the core values of service, fellowship, diversity, integrity, and leadership. It’s about changing the world for the better. I am a firm believer that we all are put on this earth for a reason. Service to others is part of that reason.”- Udaya Gartaula (CEO).
Udaya Gartaula
Udaya Gartaula, who came back to Nepal to continue the legacy in managing and overseeing the family business. A graduate of St. Paul’s school Darjeeling, Udaya was the first Nepali to be honored with a Gold Medal by the Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award. Before he embarked on his professional career he aspired to become a pilot, but eventually also ended up going to Japan to pursue his higher education and came back with a fluent understanding of the language and culture. Udaya has invested the last decade in not only learning the ropes of the business, but also in providing personalized services to each and every person who chooses to travel with Rolwaling Trek.
