RC San Fernando La Union Advances Grassroots Empowerment Through RCC Loan Release and Community Site Visit

The Rotary Club of San Fernando La Union (RCSFLU) continued its community empowerment efforts through two significant activities focused on livelihood support and infrastructure monitoring on May 10, 2026.

In partnership with PP Fred, the Club released its first financial assistance loan to RCC Abut amounting to ₱100,000 at 5% per month. This initiative is designed to support livelihood development and strengthen economic opportunities for members of the Rotary Community Corps in Barangay Abut.

The loan release represents an important milestone in the Club’s commitment to sustainable grassroots development. By providing structured financial assistance, RCSFLU aims to empower communities to initiate and manage small enterprises that can generate long-term income and stability.

On the same day, the Club also conducted a visit to Baraoas Chapel in Brgy. Baraoas to monitor the progress of ongoing improvements supported by the Club. This includes the earlier donation of 200 tiles in partnership with RCC Baraos, which is part of the community enhancement project.

The visit allowed Club members to assess developments firsthand and coordinate with local stakeholders to ensure continued progress. It also reaffirmed the Club’s commitment to accountability and sustained engagement in community infrastructure initiatives.

Together, these activities highlight RCSFLU’s holistic approach to service—combining financial empowerment, infrastructure support, and active stakeholder collaboration to create meaningful and lasting community impact.
