The Genius of the Filipino Poor | Thomas Graham

Welcome to the Global Kalinga e-Rotary Club for the week of Sunday, September 17

through Saturday, September 23, 2017. We are an Internet based Rotary Club based in Quezon City, Philippines with core groups of members in Southern California and elsewhere. We serve our local and nearby communities as well as projects in the Philippines.

Inspiration

"If you really want to be happy, don't just go for the money. Go for the relationship that lasts. Go for things of greater value.” ― Tony Meloto

Rotary 4-Way Test

Of the things we think, say or do: 1. Is it the TRUTH? 2. Is it FAIR to all concerned? 3. Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS? 4. Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?”

By building your team's self-esteem and encouraging them, the entire team becomes stronger.

Sing-Along Song—Gawad Kalinga Theme Song

Take your time and sing-along (wherever you may be).

Fine Master

Traditionally, Rotary clubs have Fine Masters who are responsible for collecting fines/happy dollars. The clipart to your left is our e-club Fine Master. Do you have happy dollars, a birthday, an anniversary, a promotion, opening a new business, new car, new child, new grandchild, etc. Please feel free (and perhaps obligated) to click on our Rotary Fine Master button to your right.

The minimum fine is $3.00 to ensure a sufficient amount to take care of the PayPal fee. The purpose of the fines can be viewed by clicking on [View Fines/Happy Dollars] from the [Weekly Meetings] main menu

Program—he Genius of the Filipino Poor

Thomas Graham was a journalist in the UK whose work brought him to the Philippines and inspired him to ditch the shirt and tie. He then ventured to the Gawad Kalinga communities up and down the Philippines in order to discover the "genius" of the Filipino poor.
