Welcome to the Filipino-American Association of Portland & Vicinity Inc.
FAAPVI's first phase of its Capital Campaign:
In lieu of a traditional fundraising gala, FAAPVI proudly presents a 3-in-1 cultural showcase on October 19—a landmark event that celebrates Filipino artistry while launching the first phase of our Capital Campaign’s cornerstone:
EVENT: Philippine Ballet Theater’s "Sarimanok"
+ Pinamulan Exhibit
+ Iconic Filipino Designers Exhibit
DATE: October 19, 2025 (Sun)
Exhibits start at 4pm, Show starts at 6pm
VENUE: Patricia Reser Center for the Arts
12625 SW Crescent St, Beaverton, OR
97005
In this first phase of our capital campaign Aug 2025- Oct 2026, we are striving to raise $100,000 to preserve and uplift a space that has long been the heart of our community.
75% of the net proceeds will go toward urgent and critical repairs to our beloved—but aging—community center, the only Filipino community-owned space in Oregon, ensuring it remains a safe and welcoming home for generations to come.
25% will help us grow our vital programs in arts & music, and expand to STEM, after-school support, workforce development, and economic empowerment, so we can continue to honor our heritage, nurture future leaders, create generational wealth, and build a stronger Filipino American presence in Portland.
