A Call to Action from the Youth

Banco Filipino is one of the most active corporate supporters of the Coastal Resource Management Project’s social mobilization and public information and awareness campagn for the ocean. Last February 15, as its contribution to the successful launching of the International Year of the Ocean 1998 in Cebu, Banco Filipino sponsored a "Save the Ocean On-the-Spot Painting Contest" among the young members of its Happy Savers Club, an organization formed and promoted by the bank as a way to develop in the Filipino youth the habit of saving. This collection features the top 15 winners of the contest.
