Rotary Club of Makati holds 22nd Christmas Bazaar

MANILA, Philippines - The Rotary Club of Makati will hold its annual Christmas Bazaar tomorrow, from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., at the Renaissance Hotel in Makati (formerly New World Hotel).

Now in its 22nd year, the bazaar features a wide array of accessories, Christmas decor, antiques, jewelry, children’s clothes, men’s and ladies’ RTW, linens, novelty items, and so much more.

Proceeds from this year’s Christmas Bazaar will help fund the Rotary Club of Makati’s efforts to help the flood victims. This will also support the club’s other humanitarian projects such as medical missions to PGH; the Save The Eye Outreach Program, which provides free consultation and surgery for indigent eye patients; computer training for out-of-school youth; the distribution of books to public schools and libraries throughout the country, and the community development project for the entire population of families in shanties near the NAIA terminal.

Shoppers can also choose to do their charity work directly. A hallmark at every Rotary Club (RC) of Makati Christmas Bazaar is the Last Angel’s table where a Christmas Tree will be filled with RC Makati “Angels” carrying the names of the indigent children who you can adopt for Christmas. You can select your own angel, choose a gift and make their Christmas a truly memorable one.

This time-honored Christmas Bazaar is being organized by the Rotary Anns led by Tessie Amparo, wife of Rotary Club of Makati president Felix Amparo.

The co-chairpersons of the Rotary Christmas Bazaar are Mely Hechanova and Angel Quila. They are competently supported by committee heads Caling Young, Irene Barcelon, Mimi Valerio, Pina Rojas, Terry Tambunting, Et Librea, Yvonne Kuan, Lu Limjoco, Vicky Cantada, Tere Boyer, Marilou Alejandro, Maureen Soong, Milette Carlos, Chit Marty, Menchit Ordoveza, Pam Manzano, and Jojo Borromeo.
