Education that creates lifelong global connections 🌎

One of the lasting highlights from Honorary Consul Jenny Ho-Vijungco’s educational partnership visits in the Philippines was reconnecting with alumni of Arizona State University’s Thunderbird School of Global Management during the Thunderbird Alumni Catch Up at The Westin Manila.

Together with Simon Turner, Samantha Alvis - leaders of the 100 Million Learners Initiative - the gathering brought together Thunderbird graduates who have taken the knowledge, experiences, and global perspectives they gained in Arizona and applied them to their careers, organizations, and communities across the Philippines and beyond.

Seeing the lasting impact of a Thunderbird education is a powerful reminder of why initiatives like the 100 Million Learners Initiative matter. Educational partnerships don’t just create opportunities in the classroom - they foster lifelong relationships, inspire innovation, and empower leaders to bring their knowledge home to strengthen the communities they serve.

Thank you to the Thunderbird alumni for sharing your journeys and for demonstrating how education can build lasting bridges between Arizona and the Philippines. We look forward to supporting continued collaboration that creates even more opportunities for future generations of global leaders 🇵🇭🤝🏼🇺🇸

Still reflecting on this beautiful celebration 🌸🇵🇭

Honorary Consul Jenny Ho-Vijungco had the privilege of attending this year’s Santacruzan celebration, hosted by the Filipino Catholic Community of Arizona at Saint Raphael Catholic Church.

We are still reflecting on the beauty of seeing families and community members gather in faith, fellowship, and celebration. From the procession of the sagalas to the performances and time shared together afterward, the evening was a meaningful reminder of how our traditions continue to bring generations together.

Flores de Mayo honors the Blessed Virgin Mary through the offering of flowers as symbols of devotion, gratitude, and faith. The Santacruzan serves as its culminating procession, carrying forward a cherished Filipino tradition both in the Philippines and throughout our diaspora.

A heartfelt thank you to the Filipino Catholic Community of Arizona, along with every organizer, volunteer, participant, and family who helped make the celebration so memorable. We are grateful for the many ways this community continues to preserve our faith and heritage, and we look forward to gathering again for more meaningful celebrations ❤️

Celebrating our heritage, together 🇵🇭✨

Honorary Consul Jenny Ho-Vijungco was honored to join the 128th Philippine Independence Day Celebration hosted by the Council of Filipino Organizations (CFO) and grateful for the opportunity to speak on the significance of this historic day for the Filipino people.

One of the most meaningful parts of Philippine Independence Day is seeing our community come together in celebration of our shared history, culture, and identity. From supporting local vendors and community organizations to enjoying cultural performances and connecting with fellow kababayan, the day was a beautiful reminder of the strength and vibrancy of the Filipino community here in Arizona.

As we reflect on the sacrifices and resilience of those who came before us, we also celebrate the generations who continue to carry our traditions forward and strengthen our community both here and abroad.

A heartfelt thank you to the Council of Filipino Organizations, the volunteers, performers, vendors, and community leaders who helped make this year’s celebration so special.
