The
whole of the good day
of September 28, 2008
was one of the most
fulfilling days for
the Rotary and Inner
Wheel Clubs of Meycauayan
Uptown.
Although it was a Sunday,
a supposed Family Day,
the members opted to
implement six(6) impact
service projects:
The
day after the Saturday
Night Joint Meeting
with RC San Ildefonso
Midtowm, in that early
Sunday morning, sixteen(16)
members of the Rotary
and Inner Wheel Clubs
of Meycauayan Uptown
assembled at the Waldo
Place, the official
meeting venue of the
Club, and left at exactly
7:30AM to implement
the following projects:
*Turnover of
Waiting Shed to Calvario
Elementary School (MG65277)
*Turnover of Waiting
Shed to Barangay Ubihan
(MG66574)
*Turnover of ambulance
Banca to Barangay Ubihan
(MG66574)
*Feeding for 200 malnourished
Children
*Organization of RCC
of Meycauayan Uptown
11 (Barangay Ubihan)
*Seminar for Mothers
in Barangay Ubihan
The
group arrived at Calvario
Elementary School at
exactly 8AM and started
the formal turnover
of 24ft-Waiting Shed
located near the gate
of the school and along
the busy main street
of McArthur Highway.
Not only the use of
the shed but Rotary
Public image is being
projected by the project
as the logo of Rotary
and the name of the
club capture the eyes
of the public.
After
exactly one hour, the
group proceeded to Meycauayan
Mart riverside to have
a 30-minute banca ride
to Barangay Island of
Ubihan along the famous
"Not so Clean Meycauayan
River". Upon arrival,
after a grueling travel
through the river, the
group was met by the
other seven(7) club
members, the Barangay
Council Officials headed
by Chairman Isaac Deato,
and hundreds of beneficiaries
which includes children,
mothers and residents
of the said barangay.
During
the food preparation
for supplementary feeding
of 200 children, the
proposed members of
the RCC of Meycauayan
Uptown 11 were gathered
together for further
RCC information emceed
and started by DGSC
Sandie San Diego, then,
P-RCC Chair Jayar Sales,
PP Louie Paderes, District
RCC Chair Zeny Mabagos
and PSDG Ruben Mabagos.
Also Past Presidents
of other RCC's shared
their organizations'
success stories. The
Seminar for Pregnant
and Lactating Mothers
followed with IWCMU
Pres. Brigette Acta
as one of the speakers.
After
the two informative
meetings, feeding of
200 malnourished children,
sponsored by Honorary
Member Linabelle Ruth
Villarica, commenced
with nutri-foods, tsamporado
and sopas. Because of
too much food prepared,
everybody including
the adults were served.
However, for visitors
and members of RCC,
a sumptuous lunch followed.
HM Linabelle also gave
clothing to the residents.
After
resting for a while,
everybody went to the
riverside to witness
the turnover of AMBULANCE
BANCA under Matching
Grant No. 66574. President
Willie and IWCMU Pres.
Brigette Acta lead the
turnover to Barangay
Chairman Isaac witnessed
by D377 Chair Lita Caisido,
HM Linabelle and DGSC
Sandie. The ambulance
then traveled around
for 20 minutes to feel
the effectiveness of
the project.
Another
project from MG 66574
was turned over to Bgy.
Ubihan Council. This
time, it's a sixteen(16)
ft. Waiting Shed along
the only road connecting
Bgy. Ubihan to Bulacan
and Obando, Bulacan.
Fishermen, commuters
and residents of the
barangay witnessed the
said turnover.
Although
it was a tiring day,
everybody felt the complete
fulfillment - an innermost
satisfaction in giving
service to the community.
