HOPE: Business for Good

HOPE, the Philippines’ first certified B Corp, is an impact organization that has consistently been recognized as Best for the World™. Established in 2012, HOPE's mission began with its flagship product HOPE in a Bottle which commits 100% of profits to build public school classrooms across the Philippines. In 2014, the organization expanded to agricultural initiatives that aim to improve the livelihood of smallholder coconut farmers in Mindanao. HOPE also addressed its environmental impact by becoming the first Net Zero Plastic Waste brand in 2018. Much recently, the organization took this a step further by engaging with women micro-entrepreneurs who manage plastic waste-to-cash sites that provide them and their communities with additional incremental income. HOPE believes that a consumer’s purchase represents a vote for the kind of world they want. As the first Filipino company to become a Certified B Corporation, it joins a global community of businesses that meet the highest standards of social and environmental performance, public transparency, and legal accountability to balance profit and purpose. HOPE continuously aims to demonstrate the power of Business For Good to make material and sustainable social impact.
