Where Tourism Meets Compassion: PHILTOA in Action

Tourism is Everybody’s Business—and every community is part of tourism.

As part of the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Legs of PHILTOA’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Mission, PHILTOA continued its commitment to reaching communities affected by the landslides, earthquake, and flash floods in Mindanao through a Food Relief Mission held on July 3, 2026.

In collaboration with the South Cotabato Chamber of Commerce and Industry Foundation, Inc. (SCCCIFI) and SOXTOURS12, relief assistance was delivered to:

📍 Barangay Katubao, Sitio Kitagas – 90 beneficiaries
📍 Barangay Luma, Sitio Tubak (Tboli Hinterland) – 60 beneficiaries
📍 Alabel, Sarangani – Donations formally received by Mayor Lilibeth Salarda, including 120 rice packs (5 kg each).

In addition, SCCCIFI and PHILTOA distributed 150 complete food relief packs to families in need, bringing not only essential supplies but also hope and reassurance that they are not alone in their journey toward recovery.

At PHILTOA, we believe that tourism is everybody’s business because every destination begins with its people. The communities we serve are our tourism partners, cultural ambassadors, and the very heart of the visitor experience. By helping communities recover from disasters, we help safeguard livelihoods, preserve destinations, and strengthen the future of Philippine tourism.

Our heartfelt gratitude goes to our members, partners, volunteers, donors, and collaborating organizations whose generosity and unwavering support made this mission possible.

Where tourism meets compassion, communities rise. Together, we build a stronger, more resilient Philippines—one community at a time.
