Dear Toastmasters of District 127,

It is with immense joy and responsibility that I step into the role of Club Growth Director for 2025–2026. In our vibrant district, growth is not just about expansion — it’s about empowering people, building connections, and transforming lives.

“One Family, Many Voices, One Vision,” perfectly reflects the spirit that drives us. We are united in purpose, diverse in perspective, and committed to helping each other succeed.

Our focus this year is on building with intention — launching new clubs in untapped spaces, strengthening existing clubs through support and collaboration, and reconnecting with members who have drifted away.

Whether you’re a new Toastmaster, a long-standing member, or a leader ready to take your club to the next level, this journey is yours to shape — and ours to support.

The District team and I are here to walk beside you — offering guidance, sharing best practices, and creating opportunities that fuel real, lasting growth. At the heart of everything we do is the belief that every voice matters, and every effort counts.

We grow not in leaps, but through every member we empower, every club we support, and every story we share.

Together, we are not just expanding clubs — we are building a stronger, more connected Toastmasters community.

At your service,
With pride and partnership,
Sowmyya Shetty, DTM
Club Growth Director
District 127
