Bahay Tuluyan - Philippines - Farm Project
 
Another great project of the Rotary Club of Essendon completed.
 
This project was designed to boost Bahay Tuluyan’s social enterprise.  The Philippines have experienced a long and difficult shut down due to the Covid Pandemic.  BT is a children’s rights organisation working to prevent and respond to abuse and violence against children.  It operates in Manila, Laguana, Quezon and Batangas in the Philippines reaching more than 1,000 children and young people each year.  It runs 2 major social enterprises.  The objectives of these social enterprises are to provide hands-on, practical training for young people in agriculture and hospitality and secondly to produce income to support the programs and services of the organisation.

As I take on the role of President of the Rotary Club of Essendon I am fully aware of the difficult times we have all gone through in the past years due to the pandemic and lockdown related anxieties, stresses and in some instances loss of loved ones.
 
Hopefully there is light at the end of the tunnel and we can all get back to doing what we do best as a club, helping people in need here and overseas.
 
The Rotary Club of Essendon being one of the oldest clubs in Australia has a track record of doing great work in the community keeping in mind the object of Rotary and the 4 Way test.
 
Rotary is not only there to help the community but also to help and assist each other, and to this end I will dedicate this year as a fellowship year.
 
As we do the good things helping the greater community in our projects, we must help and take care of our Rotary members now more than ever, in order to ensure all of us continue to maintain physical health and mental wellbeing.
 
To help achieve this goal of encouraging fellowship and goodwill within our club I intend to have more social events which were not possible in the last few years. I call upon all members to attend and take part in these events.
