** Business Meeting to approve the use of RCSW Foundation Funds to sponsor “The Makati University Scholarship and Gawad Kalinga Project” **

Background:

1. Makati University Scholarship. RC Makati West and Nagoya Airport have an ongoing programme to sponsor 10 Scholarships a year for students at the University of Makati. These are students from very poor families and would have had to drop out if not for a scholarship. Each scholarship is US$200 which pays for tuition fees and stipend for a year

              BOD has resolved to donate 10 scholarships, totaling US$2000. Proposed naming of the scholarship: "RCSW Scholarship" is still pending

2. Gawad Kalinga Project. RC Makati West is working with Gawad Kalinga - a community development programme) to build homes for slum people at the Hiyas Ng Maynila Community (292 families, population 900 of which 696 are children) in the Philippines. The programme involves building of homes, sewage and drainage system, plumbing facilities, a livelihood centre, multipurpose halls and a clinic. RC Makati-West has already raised some US$30,000 from various sister clubs to build 30 homes. They are targeting to provide 300 homes for the project. A village will be named after RCSW if we can raised US$20,000 for 20 homes.

              BOD has resolved to contribute in part by sponsoring US $5000.
