IDC also partnered with the Philippine Air Force, local communities and various government agencies since it started with its green advocacy in 2017.

We just kept on planting trees, and now we planted approximately 10,000 trees!”, said Frances Mai Galvez, Brand Manager of Italpinas Development Corporation.

“I envision a future where man and nature work in harmony. The company’s achievements and involvement in various green organizations such as the Philippine Green Building Council and US Green Building Council further attest to our commitment to being at the forefront of sustainable development in the country not just in Northern Mindanao” said Arch.
