History
The Citizen Award, Rizal and Eagle Scouts (CARES) National Association was founded during the 12th Asia-Pacific/9th National Jamboree in 1991. This is an organization of Scouts who attained the highest rank in the ladder of advancement such as Scout Citizen Award, Jose Rizal Scout Award and Eagle Scout Award.
Eventually, during the Centennial Jamboree in Clark Field, Pampanga in 1998, CARES changed its name to Eagle Scouts Association of the Philippines (ESAP).

From ESAP to ESOP (Association to Organization)
However, during the ESAP NATIONAL CONCLAVE on 15-17 May 2009 at the Leyte Park Hotel, Tacloban City, in response to the Logo and Name concerns, we decided to change ESAP to ESOP, which means Eagle Scouts Organization of the Philippines.
Transition of Logo from ESAP to ESOP
By 2009, the Eagle Scouts Association of the Philippines transformed into Eagle Scouts Organization of the Philippines (E.S.O.P), following the suggested SEC Registration Name.
