The Eastern Police District (EPD) of the Philippine National Police (PNP) and e-commerce platform Shopee Philippines have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to provide livelihood support for the families of police personnel. The agreement, signed on April 8, 2026, aims to equip spouses and dependents with skills for online selling to generate supplemental income.
The initiative, called "Pulis at Pamilya, Handang Magnegosyo," will involve Shopee conducting training sessions on how to set up and manage online stores. The program recognizes the financial challenges faced by police families due to the demanding nature of law enforcement work. The EPD covers areas including Pasig, Mandaluyong, San Juan, and Marikina.
Shopee Philippines stated the partnership aligns with its corporate social responsibility goals to support community livelihoods. The PNP has engaged in similar livelihood programs with other partners in the past to bolster the welfare of its personnel and their families.
