Cooperative Month is celebrated every October in the Philippines, as mandated by Republic Act 11502, which officially declares it as the National Cooperative Month. The theme for 2025 is "Cooperatives: United in Purpose and Action, Sharing Prosperity to Build a Better World," emphasizing the value of solidarity among cooperatives. This celebration aims to encourage participation from all sectors of society in nation-building through cooperativism, as established by Proclamation No. 493 in 2003. Cooperatives play a vital role in delivering services and programs to communities.
