Real leaders indeed shine more in times of pandemic. They are relentless, nobody can stop them to help and even outside their community, they are there.

 

Meet Engr. Grace Bondad Nicolas who grew up in Calauan, Laguna and now residing in Pasig with offices in Los Baños, Calauan and Makati. A serial entrepreneur and a once aspiring public servant to-be in her hometown, truly there’s always a higher plan, now she’s serving to help others nationwide and beyond.



At the start of this Pandemic, even in lockdown, Engr. Grace Bondad Nicolas, the Kiwanis Club of Makati President works so hard to help out. Because of her leadership and amazing effort, she’s elected as the new Lieutenant Governor Elect under Division 3A which is composed of clubs located in Manila, Pasay, Taguig and Makati. It’s the highest position in the division.

 

“I’m thankful for the trust. It’s a big responsibility but as what they say, challenges is part of being alive. In the start of this global health crisis, we focus on the orphanages and small hospitals, we saw that most are donating already to bigger and popular hospitals in Metro Manila so we like to go beyond, targeting to donate in smaller community hospitals and orphanages not just here in Metro Manila but also in Laguna. We started to send out packs of bottled water to Santa Ana General Hospital in Manila then to Bahay Ni Maria Orphange in Calamba City then to Welcome House Orphange in Makati. Even we are all in crisis, if our heart is to help out, even this deadly Virus can’t stop us, there are always ways to help. I am also encouraging all to do the same, in this crisis, it’s your time to prove your worth and your time to shine truly. While everyone are bored because of lockdown, do something productive and helpful to others, share your blessings. For this year, we contributed to different community pantries and a partnership with JCI Makati.”- Engr. Grace Bondad Nicolas
