Valentine’s Day is often celebrated as a day of love for couples, but yesterday, February 14, 2026, for the Filipino American Association of Tennessee, Inc., it was a day dedicated to love, service, and our 2026 Queens of Hearts.
We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to the five candidates who generously gave their time and effort to raise funds in support of children in the Philippines, specifically to help provide much-needed school supplies. We also extend our heartfelt appreciation to all of the candidates’ friends, family members, and loved ones whose encouragement, time, and support played a vital role in making this fundraiser a success. Congratulations as well to all of the winners of the 2026 Queen of Hearts Pageant—your dedication and compassion truly made this event special.
A heartfelt thank-you goes out to all FAAT officers for stepping up to support and assist “May May” in making this pageant a great success. We also extend our deepest appreciation to Dr. Alex Fider, MD, for his generous sponsorship, and to the beautiful Quattro Event Reception for graciously providing the venue for this meaningful cause benefiting children.
Your continued support of FAAT, Inc. truly makes a difference—whether through providing school supplies or offering aid during natural disasters, we are deeply grateful. During this event, awards were proudly presented to Dr. Fider, MD, and Helen of Troy Services in recognition of their outstanding support and sponsorship of FAAT, Inc.
