In January 1986, the Philippine Business for Social Progress launched its Provincial Development Foundation. Under the PDF program, the South Pacific Integrated Area Development Foundation, Inc. saw its light. With the assistance of PBSP, 15 socially conscious leaders in the province, mostly PBSP proponent leaders, bonded together and made initial attempts to form the foundation. Consequently, on July 16, 1986, SPIADFI was registered with SEC (Registry No. 133790), DSWD Accreditation No. : SB-2005-025
