CSR OPPORTUNITIES WITH AGREA FOUNDATION
As part of MBC’s commitment to advance the agricultural sector and improve the lives of Filipino farmers, MBC’s secretariat team visited one of AGREA Foundation’s farming sites—the Payatas Garden of Hope—to explore collaboration opportunities. Once a landfill, the site was transformed into a livelihood, food, and nutrition source for various families through the dedication and cooperation of women urban farmers.
AGREA seeks funding through CSR initiatives to scale up the Women Food Producers Association (WFPA), including the WFPA Payatas. The community also welcomes corporate partners for a farm tour, offering hands-on activities on sustainable urban farming. Visitors will have the opportunity to hear about the stories, aspirations, and dream livelihood programs of the WFPA members.
