We design and implement long-term programs, not one-off projects, that improve lives across public health, education, youth development, gender equality, inclusivity, elderly advocacy, and local community impact. Our work is done with communities, especially the vulnerable and marginalized, through strong partnerships with LGUs, NGOs, the private sector, and the Manila City Government. At its core, ComDev turns compassion into action, builds local capacity, and creates solutions that communities can sustain long after our interventions end.
Our projects are designed to empower leaders to go beyond convention—driving innovation, fostering collaboration, and creating sustainable impact. Anchored on the Lead Beyond pillar, each initiative equips individuals with the mindset, skills, and opportunities to lead with purpose, inspire change, and shape a better future for their communities and industries.
