Mabuhay Kaibigan

Welcome to the Cornell Filipino Student Association! For many of us on E-Board, CFA has become more than a club. It is where we found our closest friendships, our support system, and a community that truly feels like home. We are excited to invite you into that same experience.

CFA is a space for anyone who wants to celebrate, learn about, or connect with Filipino culture. You don’t need to speak a certain language, look a certain way, or have grown up with Filipino traditions to belong here. There is no such thing as “being Filipino enough.” If you’re curious, open-minded, and looking for community, you are always welcome :))

So come to our general body meetings, learn traditional dance, engage in Meryendas and eat good food, laugh with us at socials, and participate during our biggest events: Kamayan in the fall and Philippine Culture Night in the spring. Whether you’re looking to dive into culture, meet new people, or just find a place where you feel seen and welcomed, we hope CFA can be that place for you too.

With love,

2025-2026
