Our regular club meeting occurs every Wednesday at Bistro Eleven in the 5th floor of the Asian Institute of Management Conference Center (ACCM), Makati. Click here for directions from the ACCM web site.
The club was formally accepted into the Rotary International on Oct. 6, 2004, making it one of Rotary’s Centennial Clubs. The Rotary Club of Makati Legaspi sponsored RCMM.
To increase awareness and participation of members in club activities, the weekly club bulletin, The Acacia, was launched on Jan. 12, 2005.
Since then, the club has evolved into an organization of professionals and volunteers, and has undertaken numerous projects for the uplift of the community it serves and in fulfillment of the Rotary motto “Service Above Self.” Proof of which are the awards and recognition it has received from the district and Rotary International.
