APO – Beta Theta Chapter | (Day 2) Orientation Program 2026 💙⚜️

Today, we opened our doors and shared a glimpse of what Alpha Phi Omega is all about—its people, its values, and its commitment to Leadership, Friendship, and Service.

This orientation was more than just an introduction to APO. It was an opportunity to learn more about our values, principles, traditions, and the responsibilities that come with being part of a brotherhood built on Leadership, Friendship, and Service.

We are truly grateful to our dear alumni who took the time to be with us and support our aspirants—Bro. B**g Tomen, Bro. Brown, Sis. Dags, and Sis. Karen—as well as our visiting brothers. To our sponsor, Bro. Makoy, thank you so much for your generosity and support. Your presence helped make this gathering even more special.

We would also like to express our heartfelt thanks to our Guest Speaker, Bro. George Pasandalan, for sharing his experiences, knowledge, and words of encouragement with our aspiring brothers and sisters. Thank you for reminding us that being an APO is not simply about being part of an organization, but about living out the values we stand for.

And to all our attendees, thank you for spending this time with us and for taking the first step toward discovering what Alpha Phi Omega is truly about. We hope that the conversations, stories, and lessons you heard today will stay with you as you continue your journey.

“Forced kindness deserve no thanks, willingness to serve does not wait until it is ask for.”
— Alpha Phi Omega, 1925

Day 2 done.

Another day of giving free rides, sharing a little kindness, and simply being there for our fellow students and community.

For us in Alpha Phi Omega, service isn’t just something we talk about—it’s something we try to live out, one good turn at a time.

Two days down, and hopefully, there’s another one soon. ⚜️💙💛
