The Rotary Club of 
Clark Centennial

Rotary Club of
CLARK CENTENNIAL
Clark Field, Philippines

Angeles City, Pampanga, Philippines

RI district 3790
       
The Rotary Club of Clark Centennial was chartered on the 17^th March 1999, under the guiding hand of Charter President Rey Pineda.

During its formation it became very clear to the proposed members that the primary interest and driving force behind people joining the Club was a particular interest in helping the ‘street children’ of Angeles City.  Initially we started by sponsoring 11 children through school and we continue to do so, with a capacity for 60. 

However the Club’s main project from the outset was the building of a home for ‘street children’, and this we achieved with the opening of the Angeles Bahay Bata Center in 2001.

Comprising of local Filipino and expatriate businessmen, the members see this service project as an opportunity to contribute something really worthwhile to their city.

One of the reasons behind the outstanding success of the project to date has been the continuous contact with friends and clubs from members’ home countries.  Great benefits have been realized by members visiting Rotary Clubs back home, and overseas visitors coming to our Bahay Bata Center to see for themselves.

The membership of the Club is very diverse with members past and present originating from many countries: Philippines, Australia, New Zealand, United States of America, Canada, Germany, United Kingdom, South Africa, Sweden, Norway and Switzerland. 

Having within the Club a wide range of professional skills, this multi-national membership has been able to realize its vision by ‘rolling up the sleeves’ and working together to get the center completed.  But this, of course, was just the beginning.  The challenge that lies ahead is changing the lives of ‘street children’ in the years to come.

Early on the members of the Club decided to form its own Foundation, the Rotary Club of Clark Centennial Street Children Foundation Inc., the primary function of which is to oversee the operations of the Angeles Bahay Bata Center.
 

Meetings are held at 12.00 noon every Tuesday at the Blue Boar Inn / Hotel la Casa, Tamarind Street, Clarkview, Angeles City, Pampanga, Philippines.

 

Turn off Don Juico Avenue in to Santol Road; left in front of VFW; left again in to Tamarind Street. The Blue Boar Inn / Hotel La Casa is 150m on the left.

Most people know where the VFW is, just ask anyone in the area.

We welcome new members and visitors, so if you are in the area please come and visit the Bahay Bata Center, or join us at one of our lunchtime meetings.
