FANHS National is transitioning to a paid National Director who can sustain and grow FANHS’ tremendous legacy. FANHS importance cannot be underscored enough during these times of dissent towards Ethnic Studies and Critical Race Theory and the banning of books that tell the histories of historically marginalized groups. If you are passionate about Filipino American and ethnic history, and growing our organization, this may be the job for you.

Upcoming Events

Whether it’s happening right here in Delano, the Central Valley, California, or throughout the United States, if it involves or supports Filipino History, we will do our best to include it here. Simply email us at NewsEvents@fanhsdelano.org.

“Everybody doesn’t have to be a hero; everybody doesn’t have to be famous. Each person who is Filipino American, to me, is very very important as a story…Our stories are really in our people. It’s not so much in what the achievements are…as much as what IS the story itself.”

— Fred Cordova, Historian/Founder, Filipino American National Histoical Society
