League of Corporate Foundations (LCF)
The Foundation is a member of LCF. And in so doing, SGVF is able to network with other corporate foundations in promoting and supporting social development projects.

Association of Foundations
The SGV Foundation is a member of the Association of Foundations, a pioneer non-government organizations network in the Philippines involved in the areas of art and culture, education, health, science and technology, as well as human and social development. Its charter provides for "fostering broader understanding of the nature of foundations as institutions in nation-building," and, more significantly, a mandate to serve as a nerve center of information.

Makati NGO Network
The SGV Foundation is a member of the Makati NGO Network, an umbrella organization working for a better quality of life for residents in Makati, especially the marginalized groups.

Philippine Council for NGO Certification (PCNC)
The SGV Foundation applied for accreditation with PCNC as a donee institution, as required by the Bureau of Internal Revenue. A team of evaluators organized by PCNC evaluated and assessed its projects. The evaluation included a review of documents, and an interview with officers and staff of SGVF.

On February 21, 2000, SGVF became an accredited donee institution. The Bureau of Internal Revenue later issued a certificate of registration to the Firm, valid for three years.

CIVICUS
CIVICUS is an international alliance dedicated to strengthening citizen action and civil society throughout the world. As a non-sectarian, non-partisan world alliance, CIVICUS is uniquely positioned as a catalyst in bringing together organizations and representatives from civil society, government, and business.
