Centennial Gawad Kalinga Project

In response to the call of the district for clubs to contribute to poverty alleviation initiatives, the club adopted as its centennial project the Gawad Kalinga site in Kaingin, Parañaque City. As its contribution to the community development effort in the project site, the club has underwritten the construction of 5 houses and a multi-purpose center and has completed a nutrition program for pre-school kids. Also part of the package are periodic medical missions, an Anti-TB project, and seminars on family planning and waste management, a training program for beauticians, and a small library. The project was one of those that merited a visit by RI Pres. Jonathan Majiyagbe during his trip to Manila in late January 2004.

In December 2005, the club adopted Villa Paraiso, a slum in the Sun Valley area also in Parañaque, as a new GK mission area. The club has initiated a housing project in the area under which it has built 39 houses as of 30 June 2005 . Plans include building 100 houses or more to constitute a Rotary Village , including a day care center. The project is being supported by sister clubs RY Taoyuan and RC Itako.
