Who We Are
Founded in 2001 by Engr. David M. Consunji, Orani Suhay Foundation is a non-profit, socio-economic and service organization committed to making a lasting, positive impact among individuals and communities.
The Foundation envisions a future where Filipinos are empowered to achieve their full potential through active learning, community development, and responsible citizenship. As such, we remain committed to investing in and supporting iniatives that drive progress and development with a primary focus on expanding access to quality education.

Our History
The Foundation's name, "Suhay", is inspired by the Tagalog word for a type of bamboo scaffolding designed to safeguard homes against strong winds and inclement weather. Similarly, the Orani Suhay Foundation embodies the same resilience and adaptability characterized by suhay.
Since its establishment, the Foundation has spearheaded a range of activities, including microfinance programs, disaster relief efforts, donations to religious charitable organizations, and vocational and livelihood training seminars. Following the passing of its founder, David M. Consunji, in 2017, Orani Suhay Foundation launched the David M. Consunji (DMC) Scholarship Program with the primary goal of providing financial support to promising students at Bataan State Peninsula University (BSPU). To date, the Foundation has assisted 214 BSPU students with nearly half currently pursuing professional accreditation. Beneficiaries of the DMC Scholarship Program represent diverse fields, from Engineering and Architecture to Accountancy, Agriculture, Education, and Information Technology, among others.
Over the years, the Foundation has evolved in response to the ever-changing needs of our beneficiary communities. True to our founder's vision, we maintain an unwavering commitment to continuous improvement with the belief that every new project should reflect the Foundation's best. As the Foundation continues to grow, we plan to expand the scope of our educational programs to encompass a broader range of target areas and beneficiaries.
