President's Award
“There is a difference between interest and commitment. When you are interested in doing something, you do it only when circumstance permit. When you are committed to something, you accept no excuses, only results”.
That quote applies to many individuals in Bangsar Toastmasters Club. These people are committed to the club – who are there when the club needs them. Doing a little here, a little there but doing what really counts. These are the people who make the club great, who make sure other members have the necessary environment to grow, who support and encourage others and who offer assistance whenever it is needed.
I personally believe these people need to be recognised and appreciated. People like these have made me a better person and have helped me improve continuously.

“By appreciation, we make excellence in others our own property” – Voltaire
Appreciation is a wonderful thing. It makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well.
In appreciation of the contribution, efforts and support of these individuals, I am initiating an award called the “President’s Award”.
This award will be given every 3 to 4 months, to an individual, who helps the club fulfill the 3Fs (Fulfillment, Fun & Fellowship) and embodies the following characteristics:

The selection of the President’s Award recipient will be done by the club members themselves. Every member of the club is qualified to be selected including the Executive Committee, except the President. The first award recipient will be announced at our Installation Dinner on September 30th.
So, start recognising this individual right now – who knows it might even be you. The President’s Award is also to remind us of what being a Bangsar Toastmasters Club member is all about.
Fulfill the 3Fs and “MAKE IT HAPPEN” for you and the club.
