BDO cited for environmental leadership

MANILA, Philippines - WWF-Philippines, a member of the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), the world’s largest conservation organization, has recently awarded BDO Unibank the coveted Corporate Partner of the Year for its invaluable support to their various programs using its ATM network as key channel.

With the bank’s more than 2,800 ATMs positioned all over the country, it is able to encourage clients to donate P5 for every transaction to WWF.

This has allowed BDO to support the organization’s various programs since 2010 such as the Bancas for the Philippines, Earth Hour, environmental education, sustainable fisheries in Ilocos and Palawan, marine conservation and research in the Tubbataha Reefs, agroforestry in the Sierra Madre, whale shark ecotourism in Donsol, sustainable tourism in the fabled Ticao Pass in Masbate, and the Tamaraw Conservation Program in Mindoro.
