In honor of the upcoming Veteran's Day, we will have several events to honor and show our support for the Filipino Veterans of World War II. If you've heard of the issue or been to the last General Meeting, the 18,000 Filipino veterans that are left from World War II are still waiting for the benefits and recognition that were promised to them by the United States.Show your support by coming out to the parade in Historic Pilipinotown this Saturday -- lots of schools from all over SoCal will be there! We will be providing rides on Saturday morning to go to the parade. Meet up at Sproul turnaround at 8:30 a.m. Be sure to RSVP to the Facebook invites and groups.
Also, before the parade, come have dinner with a Veteran @ De Neve Dining Hall this Friday. Get your grub on while you get a first-person perspective of the issue from the Veterans themselves.
And get ready for next week -- we'll be tabling and handing out petitions (download below) on the 'walk to let everyone know about our brave veterans. Be excited and we'll see you on Friday! Find out more information at the next General Meeting.
