To survive, any business or corporation must be useful to the society it serves.


— Oscar M. Lopez
Chairman, Lopez Group Foundation, Inc.

 
 

For more than a century, the Lopez family has practiced the concept of private business reaching out to their communities and the nation, not only in times of calamities, but as customary behavior. It is a behavior they have accepted as the norm. See Lopez History

Through the years, philanthropy has shifted to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), focusing on equipping communities to stand on their own. The beneficiaries are treated not as dependents but are educated to become active partners for social development.

The CSR initiatives of the Lopez Group are aligned with the United Nation's Millennium Development Goals (or MDGs) in poverty alleviation, education, environment, and health. The Lopez Group is also a champion in advocacy through its worldwide media outlets.

As the Philippines’ leading provider of basic services, Lopez Holdings is committed to pursue a public service oriented approach to business. Toward this end, the corporation has a decidedly Philippine orientation, primarily investing in Philippine-based or related endeavors with a clearly defined public service perspective as in the provision of essential infrastructure such as tollways, telecom and property development, power generation and energy distribution. The company believes that infrastructure is the underlying fabric of quality of life indices and stimulating and sustaining its growth can dramatically change the way Filipinos live, aside from making the country an attractive site for private sector investments.
