FYLPRO is Accepting Applications!

Apply to be part of the FYLPRO family!

FYLPRO - "Filipino Young Leaders Program" - is the non-profit that sent me on that life-changing trip in Manila back in November. I became a prouder Filipina-American during our excursion. Here is a little trailer of our trip. The longer (30+ mins) video is on my Facebook profile if you were interested.
