Financial Inclusion That Changes Lives
At BDO Unibank, financial inclusion is more than a goal, it is a responsibility. As one of the Philippines’ largest banks, BDO has made it its mission to ensure that every Filipino has access to financial opportunities that improve quality of life. Through the BDO Foundation, the bank has launched several financial literacy campaigns that have reached students, teachers, and public sector employees nationwide.
Collaborating with local government units and educational institutions, BDO’s programs empower Filipinos with essential knowledge on saving, investing, and financial planning. These efforts reflect the bank’s belief that financial education is a powerful tool for long-term stability. Whether it is through classroom modules or community-based workshops, BDO ensures that financial literacy becomes part of everyday life.

Rebuilding Hope Through Compassion and Action
Beyond financial access, BDO stands at the forefront of humanitarian and disaster recovery efforts. The Philippines’ vulnerability to typhoons and earthquakes has inspired BDO to take an active role in rebuilding communities. Through its rehabilitation programs, the bank has restored hundreds of classrooms, health centers, and community facilities in calamity-stricken areas.
Employee volunteerism plays a vital role in this effort. Staff across the organization dedicate their time to relief drives, rebuilding efforts, and livelihood projects. This spirit of service underscores the company’s commitment to being more than a financial institution, it is a reliable partner in nation-building. The “Rebuilding Together” initiative under BDO Foundation has become a symbol of resilience, hope, and Filipino solidarity.
Sustainability and Community Empowerment at the Core
BDO’s dedication to social good extends to environmental and economic sustainability. The bank has integrated responsible lending practices and supports renewable energy projects that promote long-term climate resilience. It also provides financing for green businesses and eco-friendly initiatives that align with the Philippines’ national sustainability goals.
In line with its ESG roadmap, BDO continues to digitize its operations to promote paperless banking and expand access to remote areas. Its mobile banking initiatives and branchless banking models allow customers in rural communities to perform secure transactions conveniently, bridging the financial gap between urban and underserved sectors.
Furthermore, BDO’s support for small and medium enterprises, particularly women-led businesses, reflects its belief in inclusive economic growth. By offering tailored financial products and mentoring opportunities, the bank helps entrepreneurs build confidence, create jobs, and contribute to the nation’s development.
A Lasting Commitment to Uplifting Lives
At the heart of BDO’s community outreach is a deep sense of empathy. The BDO Employee Volunteer Program empowers staff to participate in initiatives ranging from tree planting to mentoring youth. This culture of shared purpose reinforces the organization’s identity as a community partner dedicated to long-term progress.
As BDO continues to expand its reach, it remains steadfast in its purpose to serve, empower, and uplift. Its legacy is not measured by profits, but by the lives changed and the communities strengthened through its consistent commitment to inclusion and compassion. In every project, every volunteer effort, and every initiative, BDO Unibank continues to redefine what it means to lead with heart.
