Rotary Clubs Inaugurate RCC Livelihood and Training Center in the Philippines

On April 26, 2024, the Rotary Club of Waunakee and the Rotary Club of Jefferson, District 6250, partnered with the Rotary Club of Metro Kalibo (D3850) and Albasan Elementary School to inaugurate and officially hand over the RCC Livelihood and Training Center in the Philippines. District 6250 Administrator Megs Lunn and Rotarian Janette Jordee from Waunakee attended the significant event.


The newly established center will support the 10 members of RCC Albasan "Kababayenhan nga Manugtahi," a group primarily composed of young mothers, single parents, and unemployed women.


Rotary Metro Kalibo Youth Service Director and RCC Albasan Adviser, Edwin Autencio, expressed gratitude for the successful realization of this dream project, describing the members of the Rotary Community Corps (RCC) as "dream catchers." He thanked the partners and donors for their contributions to this initiative, which aims to reduce poverty and empower young, unemployed mothers. Autencio stressed the importance of maintaining and sustaining the project for future success.





The responsibility and accountability for the RCC Livelihood and Training Center were officially transferred to RCC Albasan by the Rotary Clubs of Waunakee, Metro Kalibo, and Albasan Elementary School.


This project aligns with Rotary International's focus on Economic and Community Development, and all involved are optimistic about its potential to transform the lives of its beneficiaries.


The Rotary community extends its best wishes to RCC Albasan, hopeful that their dreams will continue to come to fruition.
