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 responds 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, Camarines Sur, Leyte, Palawan, and Cagayan de Oro.

POWERING THROUGH THE PANDEMIC
The year 2020 serves as a testament of PSFI’s strength as an organization, as it continued to further its programs while contributing to the UN SDGs. Its ability to respond to the crises of the day, look out for its communities, and implement its programs successfully all indicate its solid commitment to the fulfillment of its mission.
It was by no means an easy year, but PSFI persevered and powered through with the resourcefulness, hard work, and collaboration of its teams, partners, and beneficiaries.
