About Us
Today, the Rotary Club of Marikina Heights, though smaller in number of membership, is credited with more service projects that answer the needs of the Marikina Heights community. Foremost of the projects is the adoption of Kapitan Moy Elementary School and Marikina Heights High School where twenty one computer units were donated in cooperation with its sister club in Japan, the Rotary Club of Wakayanagi. A room was refurbished by the club complete with two airconditioning units to house the twenty one computer units.
The club sponsored a two-month training program for the school teachers on how to teach basic computer knowledge to the students.
​
Prior to the donation of computer units, the students at Marikina Heights High School would graduate and go to college with very little knowledge of computer if none at all. Lack of computer knowledge has made their life in college discouraging and miserable.
The club has also donated school desks to Kapitan Moy Elementary School where many pupils used to sit down on the floor. Several sets and volumes of encyclopedia and reference books were also donated to the two adopted schools. They were also the recipient of book shelves for their school libraries.
​
The club organized the Interact Club of Marikina Heights High School and has continuously guided and trained its members in the past several years of its existence.
Many other community projects were implemented such as health, environmental protection, care for the children in conflict with the law, care for indigent children, care for the elderly and the disabled, skills training, livelihood, feeding the malnourished children and college scholarship for students of poor families to name a few.
