Lingkod sa Kapwa Pilipino (LINKAPIL) Program
The Lingkod sa Kapwa Pilipino (LINKAPIL) Program or Link for Philippine
Development seeks a broader and deeper partnership between overseas Filipinos and
Filipinos on the home country based on a common desire to promote the
collective good of people and contribute to national development.
Conceptualized by CFO in 1989, LINKAPIL was developed as a mechanism to tap the
potentials of overseas Filipinos to support education, health and welfare, livelihood,
and small-infrastructure projects. Assistance through the LINKAPIL Program may be
monetary or in-kind, in the form of donations, grants or subsidies.
LINKAPIL projects are fully documented and closely monitored by CFO through a
monitoring and feedback mechanism. This program feature aims to encourage
transparency and boost confidence among all parties involved in the project.
"You can help make a difference in the lives of young Filipinos wanting a better future."
With the new citizenship law, Filipinos overseas can now look forward to returning
to the Philippines where citizenship rights and many new opportunities await them.
