The Foundation for Sustainable Society, Inc (FSSI) is a network of dynamic development organizations which promotes the triple bottom line (3BL) of sustainability: People, Planet, and Profit. FSSI aims to provide social investments to enterprises through the 3BL strategy and envisions empowered communities that uphold social justice, respecting integrity of creation, and realizing fullness of life.
FSSI was established in 1995 following a landmark debt-for-development swap between the Government of the Philippines and the Swiss Confederation. A counterpart fund was set up and entrusted to FSSI, which was tasked with supporting sustainable development initiatives for marginalized communities across the Philippines.
Through the years, FSSI supported over 300 social enterprises that not only deliver economic value but also contribute to social good and environmental stewardship. Indeed, FSSI is one of the leading social investment organizations in the Philippines.
On the occasion of FSSI’s 30th anniversary and as one of FSSI’s member organizations, MINCODE extends its heartfelt congratulations to FSSI on three decades of empowering communities and advancing sustainable development. MINCODE proudly recognizes FSSI’s pivotal role in fostering inclusive growth, social enterprises, and long-term positive impact. We honor FSSI’s contributions to sustainable livelihoods, especially in Mindanao communities, and we look forward to continued collaboration in advancing shared development goals for underserved and historically marginalized Filipinos.
