I’m honored to share that Capital One Philippines brought home two recognitions at the inaugural 2025 American Chamber of Commerce Corporate Social Impact (CSI) Awards! This is another proud moment that puts a spotlight on our Community Impact and Investment programs.

I’ve now had the opportunity to be part of these special moments with our associate-volunteers and civic partners. This investment in time and resources creates real impact - through better health and nutritional outcomes, through access to employment, and a positive community spirit.

With Planet Water Foundation, we recently built our 80th water tower in La Trinidad, Benguet and are on track to achieve our goal of 100 towers by the end of this year. To date, over 200,000 lives every day benefit from these water towers and this drives us to do more.

Last year, over 700 of our associates volunteered 1,000 hours and prepared 500,000 meals for nutrition or disaster response programs through our partnership with Rise Against Hunger Philippines.

And we continue to prepare our community’s youth for gainful work through our Contact Center Readiness Program with Tuloy Foundation Inc.

These activities give us a deeper understanding and appreciation for what we care about at Capital One. Our drive to be a force for good is not just for customers and associates, but also extends to the communities around us. When we care and look for ways to make meaningful change happen around us, we reinforce our mission to Change Banking For Good.
