Romblon State University (RSU), the Rotary Club of Manila Binondo Prime, and the Philippine Army joined forces today for a coastal cleanup and tree-planting activity along the shoreline of Agpudlos in San Andres, Romblon.
The joint initiative drew 40 participants, including RSU personnel, volunteers, and students, alongside 15 Philippine Army reservists, in a collective effort to protect the coastal community and promote volunteerism.
Rotary Club of Manila Binondo Prime Impact Creating President Vilma Morato-Lim led the Rotary delegation, joined by seven fellow club members.
Rotary Club of Manila Binondo Prime advanced its environmental advocacy in Romblon through two complementary initiatives, Project Sagip-Baybay for protection of coastal communities and Luntian sa Pagyabong for tree planting, reflecting Rotary’s commitment to “Create Lasting Impact” through service grounded in environmental responsibility.
The organization brought Project Sagip-Baybay to Romblon as direct action toward cleaner coastlines, greener communities, and stronger public awareness of environmental stewardship.
RCM Binondo Prime worked alongside RSU staff from the Office of the University President, the Special Projects and Advocacy Office, the Volunteerism Unit, the Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC), and the Motorpool Unit under the Finance and Administrative Management Office (FIAMO).
The Philippine Army contingent was led by For. Edgar V. Andalecio, Director of the RSU National Service Training Program-ROTC, and Col. Alejandro Malaran (GSC), Director of the 1705th Community Defense Center and RSU ROTC Commandant.
Participants collected waste and debris along the Agpudlos shoreline and planted trees to support environmental protection and community stewardship.
The cleanup and tree-planting activity forms part of RSU's continuing commitment to sustainability and community engagement. The University identifies environmental action and community participation as central to its institutional approach toward the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
Through initiatives such as the Agpudlos coastal cleanup and tree planting, RSU continues to extend volunteerism beyond the campus and into communities, where collective action produces direct and lasting environmental impact.
