At TruAdvantage, we believe in giving back to communities in need. As part of our corporate social responsibility initiative, we choose a charity each quarter to support through donations and awareness campaigns. For Q4 2024, we are honored to partner with the Aeta Tribe Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to uplifting the indigenous Aeta communities in the Philippines.
Standing with the Aeta Tribe
In the face of adversity, TruAdvantage is committed to making a meaningful difference. The Aeta communities have long faced challenges such as food insecurity, water shortages, and displacement, particularly following the Mount Pinatubo eruption in 1991. Many Aeta families continue to struggle with access to clean drinking water, sustainable agriculture, and essential infrastructure. We stand with them in their journey toward self-sufficiency and resilience.
About the Aeta Tribe Foundation
Founded in April 2015, the Aeta Tribe Foundation is a non-profit organization based in San Francisco, California. Their mission is to provide clean water, sustainable agriculture, and infrastructure development to Aeta villages in Central Luzon, Philippines, particularly in Pampanga, Tarlac, Zambales, and parts of Bataan.
TruAdvantage’s Commitment to the Aeta Tribe
In celebration of the foundation’s 10th anniversary in April 2025, we at TruAdvantage are proud to contribute to their fundraising goal. These funds will support six Aeta communities, helping them gain access to clean drinking water, food security, and sustainable development.
These are the focus areas for their fundraising goal:
- Clean Water Initiatives – Installing water catchment systems to provide safe and reliable drinking water.
- Sustainable Agriculture – Introducing farming techniques to enhance food security and nutrition.
- Infrastructure Support – Building toilets and handwashing stations to promote hygiene and prevent disease.
How You Can Help
We encourage our clients, partners, and community members to join us in making a difference. Here’s how you can support the Aeta Tribe Foundation:

Even a small contribution can provide essential resources. For example, a $5 donation supplies a 5-gallon water container to a household of five.

Moving Forward Together
At TruAdvantage, we believe that supporting communities during times of crisis is not just a responsibility but a privilege. The Aeta Tribe Foundation has been making a significant impact in the lives of indigenous people, and we are proud to contribute to their mission.
Through this initiative, we are reminded of the power of compassion, teamwork, and giving back. While our help may be a small gesture in the face of such challenges, we know that the impact of our support will be felt for years to come.
Together, we can create a brighter future for the Aeta communities. Let’s continue to support one another and make a lasting difference!
