7. Self introduction
History of the Rotary Club in the Philippines
Preliminary steps were first made to organize the Club
in the Philippines in January 1919 through the interest
and agreement of Leon J. Lambert. In June 1919, the
Charter No. 478 authorized the Rotary Club of Manila
(RCM) to operate as a formal organization under Rotary
International.
The Rotary Club of Manila was both the first Rotary Club
in the Philippines and the first in Asia under the direct
supervision of the International Association of Rotary
Clubs (now Rotary International).

8. Self introduction
THE ROTARY
The Club went on to organize its daughter clubs, the
Rotary Club of Cebu in 1932 and the Rotary Club of
Iloilo in 1933. Rotary Club of Bacolod and Baguio
were also established later on. The Rotary Club of
Manila was also responsible for organizing the
Rotary Club of Guam as its first overseas daughter
Club in 1939, through the efforts of then R.I. Vice
President Carlos P. Romulo.

9. Self introduction
THE ROTARY
During World War II meetings of its members were only
held if circumstances allowed. This period lasted from
May 1942 until it was reorganized in 1945. Many other
Rotary Clubs were subsequently established in the
Philippines.
There are now over 800 Rotary Clubs in the Philippines,
and their members are among the most active when it
comes to serving the Filipino community and helping
those in need.
