Serving the vulnerable because faith demands action.
Philippine Relief and Development Services, Inc. is a faith-based NGO committed to walking alongside communities in their hardest moments - from disaster to recovery to lasting transformation.
Born from a conviction that suffering demands a response.
The Philippines is no stranger to disaster. Typhoons, floods, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions strike with devastating regularity, and they almost always hit hardest in communities already burdened by poverty, weak infrastructure, and limited support. PHILRADS was founded in 1980 in direct response to this reality.
Established as the relief and development arm of the Philippine Council of Evangelical Churches (PCEC), PHILRADS began with a simple but urgent conviction: that the Filipino churches could not stand apart while its neighbors suffered.
For over 4 decades, that partnership has only deepened. We go in early, stay long, and leave communities stronger than we found them.
Why We Exist
A nation transformed through PHILRADS holistic engagement with the evangelical churches and partnering organizations to alleviate the suffering and improve the resiliency of disaster affected Filipino Families.
PHILRADS as the relief and development arm of the Philippine Council of Evangelical Churches, partnering with local and global like-minded organizations that aims to provide humanitarian interventions, livelihood opportunities and Capacity Building for resiliency to address the prevailing needs of the disaster affected communities.

Serving People in Jesus' Name.

"Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me."
Matthew 25:40
