Since Axelum’s inception, the principle of corporate social responsibility has been embedded in the way we do business. We exist not only for the sole purpose of financial gains, but more importantly, to act as a beacon of opportunity and hope for others, particularly those belonging to our host communities. Throughout our history, we have been truly blessed to be in a unique position to make a difference in the lives of people. To formalize this mindset, we established the Medina Development Foundation in 2002. This would serve as our vehicle to structure our social and charitable programs for the people of the Municipality of Medina, Misamis Oriental and other neighboring communities. The Medina Development Foundation is firmly hinged on three core pillars; philanthropy, agri-business development and the value of charity. At the heart of its mission, is to substantially contribute to poverty alleviation through livelihood creation, education, health and spiritual formation.
