At PFOCN, we believe that true connectivity is not only about technology—it is also about compassion, solidarity, and care for the community. This spirit of giving came alive once again during our annual charity outreach at the Lourdes Handicapped Center, Caritas Manila, on December 11, 2024.

Coming Together for a Shared Mission
This year’s outreach was made even more meaningful through the collaboration of key partners. Leading the effort were:
- Mr. Andrew Koh, President of the Singapore Philippine Association (SPA)
- Ms. Wingda Tan, representing the Singapore Embassy
- The PFOCN Admin & HR team, who organized and volunteered wholeheartedly.
Together, volunteers brought care packages, food, and joy to the residents of the Lourdes Handicapped Center. More than material support, it was the human connection—the laughter, conversations, and shared moments—that truly brightened the day.
Commitment Beyond Connectivity
While PFOCN is best known for building world-class fiber optic networks across the Philippines, our mission has always extended beyond infrastructure. We see ourselves as part of the communities we serve, and our commitment is to connect not only through cables, but also through compassion.
Our partnership with SPA and the Singapore Embassy reflects the values we hold dear:
- Global roots, local impact — drawing from our Singapore heritage while serving Filipino communities.
- Continuity and consistency — this is not a one-time effort, but part of our long-term social responsibility program.
- Shared humanity — ensuring that the benefits of connectivity include care for those most in need.

Looking Ahead
As we move forward, PFOCN is committed to sustaining and expanding these outreach initiatives. Just as we build networks that last for decades, we aim to cultivate relationships of trust, compassion, and solidarity with the communities around us.
Because at the heart of connectivity lies one simple truth: when we lift each other up, we all move forward together.
