Drug Addiction Talk

-

     Raising the awareness on drug addiction engaged Rotarians to lead healthy and meaningful lives. As leaders in the communities, being equipped with drug education enables Rotarians to develop strategies when challenging situations on drug abuse arise. Being knowledgeable on the nature and the harmful effects of drugs helps Rotarians become more effective leaders of the communities.


     To provide an effective drug education assistance, the Rotary Club of Makati GEMS organized a Seminar on Drugs on July 26, 2018, Thursday, 5p.m., at Salcedo Room, Makati Sports Club. Kagawad Robert Ty defined drug addiction and drew a picture of the life a drug addict. He also straightened out the factors and the effects of drug abuse.







      The event was accentuated by eighteen admirable GEMS members headed by the club’s Inspiring President Ana Santos.

      Congratulations, GEMS!Job well done!
