Ate/Kuya Unveiling
Sunday 10/14, 1:30PM
Huntsman, F45
Hey Adings! You should have heard from your Ate or Kuya by now (if not, shame on them). At this fun event (where there will be food), you’ll get to learn your Ate or Kuya’s identity and do some fun activities with them.
October GBM
Monday 10/15, 8PM
SHDH 109
Come hang out with PPA at the October GBM! We’ll have fun stuff to celebrate Filipino Heritage month (which is October, in case you didn’t know) and we’ll also be holding Freshman Liaison elections! Snacks and drinks will be provided, as per usual.
Line Dance-athon for Flood Relief
Thursday 10/18, 7-9PM
Hall of Flags, Houston Hall
October is Filipino Heritage Month and what better way to celebrate than to attend an event which combines the things we love for a good cause? The Penn Philippine Association will be hosting a line dance-athon in collaboration with area Filipino organizations – perfect timing because it’s right after midterms! Come dance, eat, and have a good time with us. Proceeds will benefit the Philippine Red Cross to support relief efforts in light of the flooding in August.
PPS Banquet
Friday 10/26, time TBA
Bodek Lounge, Houston Hall
PPA is collaborating with Penn Pakistan Society for a banquet. There will be free food as well as performances and displays showcasing our cultures (board members will be performing tinikling and bangko!). This event is open to everyone and we hope that you can make it!
Halo Halloween
Saturday 10/27, 7-9PM
Ronald’s House (4030 Spruce)
Come eat Halo-Halo with PPA! Enjoy these frosty treats with current members of PPA as well as the awesome alumni who will also be stopping by.
