OUR COVERNo image is more evocative of heartfelt care than the image of a hand reaching out to those in need.
For us in the PLDT-Smart Foundation, the stark realities of poverty and social inequality are things that cannot – and should not – be ignored.
Our response is not just to dole out token donations; our goal is about creating positive and lasting changes that benefit those who are at the receiving end of our programs and activities. By doing so, PSF becomes the hand that brings real transformation to people’s lives.
