Cooperative Enhanced Handholding Caravan Empowers Local Organizations

On March 28, 2025, the Enhanced Cooperative Handholding Caravan was successfully held at Alabang Central Market, Alabang, Muntinlupa City. The event was led by the Cooperative Development Authority (CDA), in partnership with ACDI Multipurpose Cooperative and our local office.

This one-stop-shop initiative aimed to assist cooperatives—from micro to large-scale—in the proper and timely submission of their mandatory reports to secure their Certificate of Compliance (COC). In total, more than 40 cooperative members received guidance and support during the caravan.

As part of the program, ACDI Multipurpose Cooperative also provided free bookkeeping and auditing services, which proved highly beneficial to several participating organizations.

Cooperatives from Muntinlupa that received their Certificate of Compliance:

• Pag-asa sa Paglaya Multi-Purpose Cooperative
• Delsa Employees Credit Cooperative
• San Roque Multi-Purpose Cooperative
• Samahan ng Drayber ng Alabang-Sucat Multi-Purpose Cooperative
• Pasco Producers Cooperative
• Yakap at Halik Consumers Cooperative of Metro Manila
• Golden Gate Credit Cooperative
• Jade Heights Multi-Purpose Cooperative
• Amazing Grace Multi-Purpose Cooperative

Cooperatives from Parañaque and Las Piñas also accommodated:

• Baclaran, Alabang, Las Piñas Transport Service Cooperative
• Sama-samang Ugnayan sa Kabuhayan at Tagumpay Multi-Purpose Cooperative
• Pinag-Isang Yaman Multi-Purpose Cooperative

We extend our sincere gratitude to the CDA for their continued efforts to make the COC process faster, simpler, and more accessible for our cooperatives. Our office remains committed to supporting agencies and initiatives that promote growth and development for cooperatives in our city.
