Help & Assistance For Rotary Philippine Districts, Inc.

The HARI Team

Immediately after Typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda), Rotary Clubs, Rotarians and friends around the world expressed their desire to provide immediate assistance in terms of money, food, clothing, medicine, water and other relief goods to help alleviate the condition of the victims in Visayas. However, there was no centralized point for Rotary communication and coordination to receive, distribute and account for such donations, as well as lead a strategic unified relief operations in the affected areas.

IMG_2825Thus, the Help & Assistance for Rotary Philippine Districts, Inc., or Rotary Helps Philippines, was organized and registered with the Philippine Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as a non-stock, non-profit corporation specifically to receive donations and undertake relief, reconstruction work and other humanitarian assistance services in areas affected by natural calamities or man-made disasters, on behalf of Rotarians, friends and other donors.

Thank You Rotary

Rotary Helps Philippines immediately began receiving donations for the victims of Typhoon Haiyan and has considered high impact yet doable and sustainable projects that will also build positive public image for Rotary International.  The board of directors, after due deliberation, approved the rebuilding of damaged public schools in the affected areas as its priority project.  Aside from that, it will also undertake other humanitarian projects subject to urgency, necessity and availability of funds.
