ABOUT PFPI

We empower communities with self-help approaches that are manageable and sustainable at the local level

About us

PATH Foundation Philippines, Inc. (PFPI) is a private, non-stock, non-profit corporation registered with the Philippines Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in 1992, and with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) as a charitable organization with 501 (c) (3) status.

PFPI is both a technical assistance and an executing organization. Since 1992, PFPI has pioneered innovative approaches and designed, implemented, and evaluated cutting edge projects in family planning, health, and cross-sectoral initiatives by integrating population, health, and environment (PHE). PFPI has worked in collaboration with multi-sectoral stakeholders at national and subnational levels to enhance development efforts in 75 key urban centers and rural coastal municipalities spanning five marine and forest biodiversity conservation areas in the Philippines. Best practices and lessons learned from these endeavors have been transferred to a number of developing countries in Africa, Asia, and the Pacific region.
