Who we are
Tapec Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing life’s basic essentials, such as food, clothing, shelter, and education, to underprivileged children across the Philippines. Founded on the belief that every child deserves a fair start in life, Tapec Foundation works to bridge the gap between poverty and opportunity by addressing immediate needs and nurturing long-term hope.
Through local partnerships, grassroots outreach, and community-driven initiatives, Tapec Foundation ensures that vulnerable children are not just seen, but supported, protected, and empowered.
At Tapec Foundation, every child deserves a chance.
Meet our Founders
The Tapec Foundation was founded by Benjamin and Thomas Tapec Ryan, who both grew up in the Philippines and witnessed firsthand the challenges many children face without access to basic needs. Driven by a desire to give back to their community in Polomolok and General Santos City, they created the foundation to ensure that every child has the chance to have their basic needs met.
