Project GLORY is in line with the club's 2026 first quarter theme of "SERVE – SHARE – LOVE", carrying on the direction of its previous projects; BIBO, for Persons with Disabilities, KAYSAYA for Persons Deprived of Liberty, and KASALO, a District Grant Project for the elderly.

RC Mandaluyong West is grateful for the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of the different beneficiaries who need the most. With God’s blessings, the club hopes to continue these humble initiatives in the years to come.
