Angat Buhay received the prestigious Philippine National Council for NGO Accreditation (PCNC) last August 30, exceeding the quality standards and requirements expected of an NGO. This important milestone and achievement was attained just one year after it was formally launched in July 2022.
This recognition is a testament of Angat Buhay’s deep commitment to good governance, effective management, transparency, and accountability – a feat which has been acknowledged by both the government and numerous donor agencies.
In a Facebook post, Angat Buhay’s Executive Director Raffy Magno expressed his gratitude to the people behind the foundation, and assured that the accreditation will help streamline and organize their internal systems and processes.
“Mahirap-hirap ang proseso na pinagdaanan ng Angat Buhay para makuha ito. Pero sobrang sulit dahil naging tulay ang accreditation na ‘to para patuloy nating ma-improve ang systems at processes ng ating NGO (The process that Angat Buhay went through to achieve this was very challenging. However, it was extremely worthwhile because this accreditation has become a bridge for us to continuously improve the systems and processes of our NGO),” he expressed.
The PCNC accreditation offers volunteers across the country more things to look forward to.
It can be recalled that upon its inception, Angat Buhay earnestly sought to uphold the Filipino spirit of “bayanihan” following Atty. Leni Robredo’s groundbreaking 2022 Presidential Campaign.With a community-centric vision in mind, the proponents decided to open a platform for continued volunteerism with marginalized Filipinos at the receiving end.
The PCNC-accredited NGO continues to forward their advocacies on public education, public health, disaster relief and rehabilitation, and community engagement and empowerment.
