On August 23rd, a delegation from the Rotary Club of Makati embarked on a journey of impact and collaboration, returning to Cabanatuan to continue the transformative "Tulong Dunong" project.
Led by DGN Reggie Nolido, the team included Dir. Neil & Camille Makasiar, and Rtn. James & Jenny Bosch. Their mission was clear: to make a difference in the lives of young students in partnership with St. Nicholas of Tolentine Cathedral Parish and in coordination with RC Cabanatuan North.
After a journey of over 3 hours, the team arrived at San Bartolome Parish. Under the warm embrace of the morning sun, a mass was celebrated by none other than Fr. Noy Oliveros, the visionary behind the "Tulong Dunong" project. His dedication and passion set the tone for the day ahead.
Post-mass, DGN Reggie Nolido shared heartfelt messages on behalf of RC Makati, while Pres. Martin Esteban of RC Cabanatuan North emphasized the power of collaboration.
With an infectious enthusiasm, the Rotary Club members eagerly distributed school bags and essential supplies to 20 children from Brgy. Aduas Norte. This was part of the "Tulong Dunong" project, designed to empower 460 public school students across 23 barangays in Cabanatuan. The goal? To ensure these young minds embark on their educational journey in late August with renewed confidence and purpose.
The journey of impact didn't end there. As the team walked over to Calagundian Elementary School, a new chapter unfolded. United by the spirit of "Brigada Eskwela," the Rotary Club members joined forces to contribute to education through the "Books Across the Seas" project. Their generous donation of 500 books is set to enrich the minds of young learners,
fostering a love for learning that knows no bounds.
In a world where collaboration is key and service is the heart of change, the Rotary Club of Makati continues to shine as a beacon of hope, fostering a brighter future for the children of Cabanatuan. Together, we can create hope in the world.
