Paving the road to recovery and sustainable growth

As Filipinos struggled with the multiple challenges of 2020, Eton Properties stood ready to

provide assistance. Through the Tan Yan Kee Foundation, the Lucio Tan Group’s corporate

social responsibility arm, Eton Properties, was able to provide much-needed help to

thousands of Filipinos.

Following the eruption of Taal Volcano, Eton Properties donated sleeping mats to displaced

families in Lian and Nasugbu, Batangas. Employees of Eton Properties, Philippine National

Bank, and Absolute Distillers conducted joint relief operations to distribute the sleeping

mats, hygiene kits, water, and other relief goods to affected residents.

Eton Properties also actively supported agroforestry initiatives through the Dr. Lucio Tan

Legacy Forest Project in Carranglan, Nueva Ecija. Vegetable crops, fruit trees, and forest

trees are grown in the 980-hectare area by farmers. The farm serves as a sustainable source

of livelihood for poor farmers and indigenous peoples in the surrounding communities.
