The Philippine Business for Social Progress (PBSP) recently inked a Memorandum of Understanding to assist and facilitate business collaboration between two of its supported enterprises: EcoIngenuity, Inc. and Women for Progress of Nagpayong Multi-Purpose Cooperative (WPNMPC). This partnership is a function of PBSP’s Livelihood and Enterprise Development (LED) initiative in integrating both enterprises’ commercial endeavors, wherein WPNMPC, an adopted community of EcoIngenuity produces water hyacinth leatherette sheets, a vital raw material used by EcoIngenuity in its statement bags and journals product lines. PBSP likewise commits its continuous assistance through various LED programs.

PBSP is a non-profit organization, the country’s largest social development foundation, with 240 member companies working together to promote business sector involvement to reduce poverty in the country.
