AU Development Foundation

The growth and development of every country depends largely on its available resources, its kind of leadership and governance, and the innate ability of its people to meet their basic needs and respond to the demands of modern times.
 

For Filipinos, this line of thought has been challenged many times over by socio-economic, political, cultural, religious and environmental forces.  Home to about 100 million people today, the Philippines is still a nation struggling to attain sustainable development and economic stability in the face of seemingly endless adversities.

 

Despite the well-meaning efforts of the government to provide accessible social services to the people such as education, health, livelihood and infrastructure development, much more needs to be done to alleviate poverty and improve the lives of the Filipinos.

 

This was the same compelling reason that fueled the establishment of the Angeles University Development Foundation, Inc. (AUDF) 32 years ago on November 29, 1984. The core function of the AUDF is to  provide management and financial support to Angeles University Foundation (AUF) and the AUF Medical Center (AUFMC), both private non-stock, non-profit institutions based in Angeles City, Philippines. AUDF was granted recognition by the US Treasury Department on August 23, 1985 to receive donations and be exempted from paying federal taxes. 

 

Now on its 32nd  year, the AUDF continues to hold the torch of hope for many Filipinos who dream of obtaining quality education and healthcare.
