Branching Out for Sustainability: PNPI Partners with ISACA Manila for Tree Nurturing Activity
On the morning of June 20, 2026, the lush trails of the La Mesa Ecopark became a vibrant hub of environmental stewardship as volunteers from the Payments Network of the Philippines, Inc. (PNPI) joined forces with the ISACA Manila Chapter for a joint Tree Nurturing Activity.
Representing a powerful intersection of information security, national payments switch leadership and community responsibility, the collaborative event brought together employees and industry professionals who swapped their keyboards and spreadsheets for soil and Kalumpit saplings. The morning was spent actively planting and nurturing native trees, contributing directly to the vital reforestation and watershed protection of Metro Manila’s primary water source.
Beyond the environmental impact, the activity served as a unique, informal venue for the PNPI and ISACA communities to build cross-industry camaraderie. Muddy shoes and shared laughter replaced formal office dynamics, reinforcing both organizations’ commitment to sustainable development and corporate social responsibility (CSR). To wrap up the productive morning, ISACA awarded BancNet a certificate of appreciation, marking a successful day of grounding our corporate values into actual, living roots.
A tree-huge thank you to all the PNPI and ISACA Manila Chapter volunteers who woke up early, stepped out of their comfort zones, and left a lasting, green footprint for the future.
