The campaign, launched this September, showcases FPT Software’s
commitment to corporate social responsibility. Employees, alongside
their families, are taking part in a variety of activities,
including beach clean-ups, charity efforts, blood donations, and
environmental restoration projects like tree planting.
On the shores of the Philippines, in locations like Cebu,
hundreds of FPT Software engineers and their loved ones gathered to
clean up beaches, collecting vast amounts of plastic waste, food
wrappers, and discarded electronic items. Armed with gloves and
reusable bags, the volunteers worked to restore these once-pristine
environments, returning them to their natural beauty. Participants
also kicked off the Happy Giga Run with a Zumba session, all while
taking pride in their collective effort to contribute to a cleaner,
greener world.
In Manila, FPT Software partnered with the "Takbo Para sa
Kalikasan" event, a local environmental run, merging fitness and
charity. The run drew residents of Pasay City, who embraced the
dual mission of promoting personal health while contributing to
social good through charitable fundraising. The initiative was
widely supported by the local community, further spreading the
company’s message of environmental stewardship and civic
engagement.
FPT Software’s efforts in the Philippines extend beyond
environmental campaigns. Partnering with the Philippine Red Cross,
the company has hosted blood donation drives, gathering thousands
of units of blood for patients in need. Charity programs aimed at
supporting the elderly have also formed a key part of their
outreach, addressing an often-overlooked issue with both material
assistance and much-needed human connection.
Looking ahead, FPT Software Philippines is planning to broaden
its community initiatives, including donations to orphanages, the
provision of essential supplies for the homeless, and the
organization of free health clinics. These efforts follow closely
on the heels of FPT Software Philippines being recognized as a
"Great Place to Work," cementing its reputation as a company with
both a global outlook and a deep local impact.
FPT Software’s global reach also plays a pivotal role in this
campaign. Employees in countries such as the United States, Japan,
South Korea, Sweden, France, Indonesia, and Vietnam have similarly
participated in runs and community activities. Through these global
efforts, FPT Software’s employees, their families, friends,
customers, and partners are spreading not just the spirit of
sportsmanship but a shared commitment to bettering the communities
they serve across 30 countries and territories.
