Filipino American Friendship Club of Oregon
About Filipino American Friendship Club of Oregon
Founded in 1978 by dedicated Filipino families in Washington County, Oregon, the Filipino American Friendship Club of Oregon has served as a vital cultural and community institution for nearly five decades. What began as a grassroots effort to preserve Philippine traditions and share Filipino culture with the next generation has evolved into a respected organization affiliated with the Council of Filipino American Associations. FAFC's mission centers on rendering meaningful civic services that improve community life across Oregon while honoring the rich heritage and customs of the Philippines. The organization believes in the power of cultural preservation and intergenerational connection, creating spaces where Filipino American families can celebrate their identity together. Beyond cultural celebration, FAFC actively invests in the Oregon community through civic projects and youth development programs that build stronger neighborhoods and empower young people. By combining cultural pride with community service, the Filipino American Friendship Club of Oregon demonstrates how heritage and civic responsibility can work together to create positive change. The club welcomes all community members interested in learning about Filipino culture, participating in community improvement efforts, or joining a welcoming network of Filipino American families throughout Oregon and southwest Washington.
