Our Vision

DSC00043.JPG

In 2020, a group of Portland-based youth, parents, caregivers, nurses, community leaders, activists, and small business owners set out to support hundreds of Filipino families impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic. The Filipino Bayanihan Center aims to provide basic resources and a community gathering place accessible for Filipino workers, new migrants, and Filipinos in the diaspora seeking community, empowerment, and connection.

Together, we envision a future grounded in health, livelihood, and justice for everyday Filipinos.

Noong 2020, isang grupo ng mga kabataan, magulang, caregivers, nurses, mga lider sa komunidad, mga aktibista, at small business owners ay naglunsad ng isang proyekto para matulungan ang daan-daang mga Pilipino naapektuhan ng Covid-19 pandemya. Ang Filipino Bayanihan Center ay gustong magbigay ng mga resources at ng isang lugar na magagamit ng mga Pilipinong mangagawa, bagong migrante, at Pilipino na mula sa diaspora na naghahanap ng komunidad, ng kalakasan at ng koneksyon. 

Sa ating pagkasama-sama, gusto naming makita ang isang kinabukasan na may kalusugan, kabuhayan, at hustisya para sa bawat Pilipino.

It also helps community members access free or no-to-low-cost resources, and connects families to grassroots organizations and advocates.
