This organization is a registered student organization of Cornell University. Comprised of undergraduates, graduates, and Ithaca residents, the Cornell Filipino Association (CFA) strives to provide a support network, as well as a forum for discussing Filipino culture, heritage, and traditions. CFA is open to all those wanting to learn more about the beautiful islands of the Philippines. We aim to
celebrate and educate through club activities, annual events, cultural dance, and (of course) traditional food. Throughout the year, we host and participate various major events, from picnics to culture shows to conferences:
Kamayan: A culture show that showcases our Filipino food. Our members cook and serve dinner to 180 guests and perform cultural dances. Philippine Culture Night: An evening show that features our club's dancing and acting talents. Asia Night: A collaborative "street fair" type event with all of the other Asian groups on campus. Our interactive stalls and dances have been quite successful these past few years. CFA Formal: A night where we get to dress up, eat well, and have fun!
