Inner Wheel Club of Amman Philadelphia
Vice Chairman – Jordan
District 95 Egypt & Jordan
2025–2026
To begin, I would like to extend my warmest congratulations to the entire Inner Wheel family and to the members of District 95 Egypt & Jordan as we embark on the 2025-2026 new Inner Wheel year.
It is with great appreciation that I welcome this year’s inspiring theme,
“STEP UP & LEAD by EXAMPLE.”
This theme highlights the significant challenges women face as they seek full partnership in their communities. It reminds us of the vital roles women play in their families, societies and wider circles, especially now that communities are increasingly connected to the world through various social media platforms.
My own journey with Inner Wheel began more than two decades ago, driven by the belief that empowered women can transform entire communities. At the Inner Wheel Club of Amman Philadelphia, I have had the privilege to serve in several leadership roles: As secretary from 2011 to 2014, Club President in both 2014–2015 and 2018 2019, and most recently as District Webmaster in 2022–2023. This year, I am honored to take on the role of Vice Chairman, proudly representing the voices and vision of Jordan’s Inner Wheel Clubs for the year (2025–2026).
Inner Wheel Clubs worldwide, including our district, pioneer development and charitable initiatives. Through local and international projects, targeted development programs, and expanded access to healthcare and education, we drive community growth at every level.
Building on our community work, we also maintain an active presence at the United Nations, with seven permanent representatives based at the UN headquarters in Vienna, Geneva and New York. Each year, our delegates submit international reports to Inner Wheel International for review and evaluation of our contributions and impact.
This women’s organization focuses on strengthening friendship, service, understanding, and open communication worldwide, fostering collaboration among women from diverse cultures.
Through these efforts, Inner Wheel initiatives empower women and girls by offering vocational training tailored to their needs, while also dedicating significant resources to childhood programs across all Inner Wheel districts. These initiatives have made a meaningful impact on the health, and the economic and social empowerment of women and children.
District 95 Egypt & Jordan stands out for the diversity and steady expansion of its activities, programs and projects. Noteworthy women-focused initiatives include the sustainable empowerment project in Jerash Camp led by the Inner Wheel Club of Amman Philadelphia, as well as a sewing project in the Jordan Valley. These efforts and initiatives, along with many others, continue to make a lasting impact and leave a meaningful mark on communities.
What also sets District 95 apart is not just the breadth of its work but the unity of its spirit. We are diverse, dynamic and deeply devoted as we bring ideas to life and turn vision into tangible impact.
In closing, may this new year be one of growth and brilliance. May Inner Wheel continue to widen its circle of influence, not only through its growing numbers but also through its depth, its authenticity, and heart.
And above all, may peace and stability grace our region, enabling us to serve, empower, and lead with clarity and purpose.
