Filipino American Alumni Chapter

Welcome to the Filipino American Alumni Chapter!

WHO WE ARE: At the heart of the Filipino American Alumni Chapter are passionate individuals dedicated to fostering community and celebrating our shared cultural heritage and experiences. The legacy left by our alumni has paved the way for UC Irvine to become a first-choice campus for Filipino American families. Through a variety of events and initiatives, we aim to foster and grow our alumni network in order to support the Filipino American community so that they can continue to thrive on campus and beyond.  

Filipino American Alumni Reunion on October 12, 2024

 

HELP GROW OUR ENDOWMENT: We created new milestones in 2024 when the Chapter received $25,000 to establish the Filipino American Community Engagement Scholarship Endowment, the first of its kind associated with the UC Irvine Alumni Association. This fund is designed to support undergraduate scholarships benefiting students dedicated to the Filipino American community. Your contributions this Giving Day to the Filipino American Community Engagement Scholarship not only help students achieve academic success but also strengthen the Filipino American community. 

Beyond the endowment, we also awarded 3 Anteaters with impactful scholarships in 2024. See how our 2024 Scholarship Recipient, Desiree De Jesus, felt about community support:

GET INVOLVED & MAKE AN IMPACT: 

• Volunteer and become an integral part of our thriving community.

• Stay connected on Facebook to keep up with our latest events and initiatives.

Together, we can leave a lasting legacy at UC Irvine and beyond. Thank you for being an essential part of our journey!
