On March 22, 2026, the Rotaract Club of Brgy Sta Cruz, together with our incredible partners, brought Project Play it Forward: Move for Inclusion to life at Villar Gymnasium (Manuela 4-C), Las Piรฑas City. ๐ With the goal of promoting inclusion and community engagement, the event created a safe and joyful space for children with special needs to participate in sports and physical activities, proving that play can be a powerful bridge for empathy and connection.
But beyond the games and cheers (and yes, the energy was unmatched ๐), the day was all about shared experiences. The event opened with a vibrant parade of players alongside their teams and partner organizations, setting the tone for a celebration of inclusivity. Throughout the program, children were guided by volunteer therapists in a series of accessible and engaging games, with parents and volunteers joining in the fun every step of the way. Each game ended with smiles and recognition, as teams received prizes and every participant was awarded medals and trophies because every effort deserved to be celebrated.
It was more than just a sports event. It was a space where families felt seen, children felt empowered, and communities came together with intention and heart. The day closed with the distribution of loot bags for each family, a small token to remember a day filled with laughter, connection, and notable moments.
To our partners, the Rotary Club of Makati North, Rotary Club of Alabang, Rotaract Sunvalley Sunrise, Rotaract Club of Paseo de Roxas, Rotaract Club of Makati Jose P. Rizal, Rotary Club of Paraรฑaque St. Andrews, Rotary Community Corps of Brgy Sta Cruz, Perpetual Help โ Medical Center Las Piรฑas, Gardenia, and Universal Robina Corporation, thank you for making this initiative possible. Your support helped turn this vision into a truly inclusive and impactful experience.
Hereโs to creating spaces where everyone belongs, celebrating every small win, and moving forward together. ๐ซ
