Agency
Profile
The Philippine
National Volunteer Service Coordinating Agency (PNVSCA) is
the government agency mandated to promote and coordinate volunteer
programs and services in the Philippines.
It
was created as a committee in 1964 to concretize the Philippine
Government's commitment to the agreement reached during the
International Middle Level Manpower Conference held in Puerto Rico in
1962 adopting volunteerism as a tool for socio-economic development.
It
became an office in 1973 and then an Agency on 12 December 1980
through Executive
Order No. 635. PNVSCA is under the administrative supervision of
the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA).
PNVSCA
closely works with other government agencies, non-government
organizations, the academe, the corporate group, the media and other
partners in converging and linking the different volunteering efforts
and resources so that they are aligned with national priorities and
assist especially the marginalized sectors and communities.
PNVSCA takes the lead in advocating and recognizing the contributions
of volunteers to nation-building and international cooperation.
