The Rotary Club of Makati is the lead club in the relief drive of R.I. District 3830 for families affected by Typhoon Ondoy. At the helm of the humanitarian effort is Gov. Sid Garcia , a member of RC Makati. The RCM clubhouse at the MRCFI Building in Guadalupe Viejo was made available by the Club to serve as the collection center and command post for the relief operations. As lead club, RC Makati is putting its manpower resources to work. RCM Rotaractors and Interactors have been joining up with the club staffers in receiving, sorting out, and packing relief goods. The secretariat is also coordinating with donor clubs and handling requests from clubs for goods to be distributed to affected communities. In charge of overseeing operations is Dir. Toffy Concepcion , chair of RC Makati's Emergency Relief Committee. As of Monday, 28 September, nearly 1,100 bags of assorted foodstuff had been distributed to 800 families in 10 areas—Moonwalk, Parañaque; Camp Bagong Diwa, Taguig; San Antonio, Parañaque; Kasilawan, Makati; Pateros; Muntinlupa; Sto. Niño Village, Marikina; Rosario, Pasig; and District 2 Moonwalk, Parañaque—by 8 Rotary Clubs in the district—RC Alabang, RC Makati JP Rizal, RC Makati Nielsen, RC Palanyag, RC Parañaque Metro, RC Rizal East RC Rizal Southwest, and RC Taguig South, and two RC Makati staffers. RC Makati Pres. Felix Amparo and the RCM board of directors took a proactive stance early by canceling the regular Tuesday luncheon meeting and diverting the luncheon cost of about P33,000 to the disaster relief campaign. Several RCM members have also responded to the appeal for assistance for the typhoon victims. Cash donations totaling P52K have been pledged by or received from 6 RC Makati members— PRID Paing Hechanova, PP Fred Nassr, PP Sonny Tambunting, Rene Galve, Bruce Newfield and Baby Rotarian Felix Ang . A number of clubs have also sent in donations in kind— RC Makati Northwest /Pres. Ace Tolentino : 2 boxes of sardines and 4 boxes cup noodles; RC Makati Dasmariñas/ Pres. Lou Baens : 9 boxes mineral water, 6 boxes corned beef, 2 boxes pandan fruit drinks, 3 boxes sardines, 6 boxes cup noodles; RC Makati Greenbelt: 2 packs of clothes, 1 pack biscuits, 1 box canned goods and 1 box biscuits; RC Makati J. P Rizal/ IPP Jenny Rojales , 200 pcs cupcakes, 2 boxes sardines, 7 sacks of clothes, 1 bag footwear; RC Paranaque Merville, 6 sacks of clothes, 3 boxes canned goods, 4 boxes mineral water, 2 boxes corned beef, 4 boxes cup noodles, 2 boxes fruit drinks, 3 boxes biscuits, 1 box pancit canton, 1 box cupcakes; RC Makati West/ Pres. Fern Peña : 2 sacks of rice; RC Makati Nielsen/ Pres. Emi Pulido: 2 boxes choco drink and 3 boxes of noodles; RC Makati Damarinas/ IPP Abet Nolido : 3 plastic bags of old clothes; and RC Makati Bonifacio/ IPP Ric Loyola : 2 boxes of used clothes. Our Brother Club, RC Davao of District 3860 also sent 1,000 kilos of frozen bananas. RC Makati donors in kind were: Pres. Felix Amparo : 1 sack of rice, 3 boxes of sardines, 1 box canned meat loaf, 1 box of noodles, 1 box of used clothes; PP Jonny Carlos : 1,000 bags of assorted items and 2 boxes of baby items; Dir. Eddie Galvez , 5 boxes of mineral water, 1 box of noodles; Rtn. Mau Blardony : 6 boxes of assorted biscuits, 3 boxes of mineral water; Rtn. Ai-ai Galvez : 5 boxes of mineral water, 3 boxes of sardines; PP Fidel Alfonso : 1 box noodles, 8 boxes mechado; PP Pepito Bengzon , with RC Makati San Antonio IPP Doris Ensomo : 3 boxes beef noodles, 3 box pancit canton and 1 box instant noodles; and Dir. Toffy Concepcion , 3 shovels. Given the gravity of the situation, with so many areas still under water and mud, and thousands of families still awaiting help, relief work must go on. RC Makati continues to accept donations in cash and in kind. Rotarians, clubs and friends of Rotary who want to course their donations through District 3830 may call 899-7863 to 65, send an email to rcmakati@pldtdsl.net , or text 0920-9149512 for pledges and/or directions on how to get to the command post.
