Founded in 1975 by longtime Fort Collins resident Mauro Corral, the Northern Colorado Filipino-American Association has become a cornerstone of cultural preservation and community connection in Wellington and the surrounding region. What began as a small gathering has evolved into a thriving organization dedicated to sharing Filipino values, heritage, and traditions with Filipino-Americans, their families, and the broader community. The association's mission centers on enhancing unity and introducing Filipino culture through meaningful experiences, while encouraging Filipino-American children to participate in activities that help them understand and appreciate their heritage. Operating across Greeley, Loveland, and Fort Collins, the organization creates welcoming spaces where families can connect, build friendships, and celebrate their shared identity. Through seasonal gatherings and cultural programming, members work together to preserve Filipino traditions while embracing intercultural understanding and becoming well-balanced citizens in their communities. The association's fun-spirited approach to cultural education makes it an accessible entry point for those seeking to learn about or deepen their connection to Filipino heritage. By fostering both cultural awareness and strong family bonds, the Northern Colorado Filipino-American Association continues its legacy of bringing people together around shared values and mutual respect.
