Corporate citizenship and social responsibility are values firmly held in Petron Corporation, the Philippines’ largest oil refining and marketing company. This is highlighted in the company’s corporate mission: caring for the community and the environment and further captured in one of the company’s strategic thrusts, which is to “enhance corporate social responsibility (CSR).”
Tasked to take the lead in pursuing this mandate is PETRON FOUNDATION, INC. (PFI), which implements programs to secure the future of the Filipino children and fuel their hopes through corporate social responsibility endeavors in the areas of education, environment, health & human services and advocacy.
Through the PFI, Petron Corporation brings corporate social responsibility into the mainstream of its operations by integrating the social and environmental agendas into its business goals. This enables Petron to be a business organization that provides systems-wide and sustainable approaches to the Philippines’ social concerns through the responsive delivery of relevant and effective programs and services, active employee engagement, strategic partnerships, accountability and organization effectiveness, and intensified communications and advocacy programs.
All these are aimed at allowing Petron to secure a better future for Filipinos by fueling HOPE: Helping Filipino Children and Youth Overcome Poverty through Education.
