Pilipinas Shell Foundation, Inc. (PSFI) was established on August 19, 1982 as the social arm of Shell companies in the Philippines. We aspire to spearhead fit-for-purpose projects that respond not only to the needs of Shell’s worksites and host communities, but to the rest of the country. Currently, PSFI works with numerous groups in various locations around the Philippines, with specialized focus in communities in: Batangas, Bohol, Misamis Oriental, Cagayan de Oro, Camarines Sur, Iloilo, La Union, Leyte, Negros Occidental, Oriental Mindoro, Palawan, and Rizal.

PSFI has touched more than 15 million lives in its 40 years of service through its diverse programs. While we prioritize our work in some areas, we continue to extend our programs to other regions in need.

Our Programs

Our work focuses on six (6) thematic areas comprising various programs that are best fit for communities that we work with, aligned with the UN SDGs, and developed and implemented by experts.
