​Our Mission

Mission and History

Philippine International Aid was established in 1986 to provide assistance to disadvantaged Filipino youth in the Philippines and the United States. PIA is a tax-exempt public charity under Section 501c3 of the Internal Revenue Code.

PIA is one of the oldest tax-exempt organizations in the U.S. focused on the Filipino community.

PIA’s core programs provide educational assistance to more children in the Philippines than any other U.S.-based charity. Annually, we provide aid to more than 2,500 students.

An all-volunteer organization, a hallmark of PIA’s governance is transparency and accountability to the community and especially to its donors.
Philippine International Aid (PIA) is a California-based nonprofit, non-stock corporation recognized by the IRS as exempt from income tax under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3). PIA publishes financial summary information as a part of their annual newsletter and IRS 990 forms.  Financial information about PIA may be obtained by contacting us at Philippine International Aid, 1813 El Camino Real, Suite 3, Burlingame, CA 94010 or emailing us at [email protected].
