The Club traces its roots to the former Rotary International District 9211, which was later restructured into two Districts that is 9213 and 9214. Today, the Rotary Club of Makindye West Kampala proudly belongs to Rotary International District 9214, joining a vibrant network of Rotarians dedicated to service, fellowship, and leadership across Uganda and Tanzania.
