We are Forest Foundation Philippines—a non-profit organization providing grants and technical assistance to individuals and organizations that protect and conserve the forests.

Bonded by a mutual affinity for the protection of the country’s lush forests, Forest Foundation Philippines was established in 2002, under two bilateral agreements, between the governments of the United States of America and the Philippines, through the US Tropical Forest Conservation Act, which resulted in two Tropical Forest Conservation Agreements (TFCA1 and TFCA2). Under this, a ‘debt-for-nature’ agreement converts the Philippines’ debt into funds that are used by the Foundation for forest protection and conservation activities.
