The FYO is a group of young adult Filipinos who come together to work in the community. We raise money by getting the whole community involved. It's not one of those fundraising groups that goes door to door selling products, but it's an organization that raises money with a sense of style. We are creative and have fun with what we do. We've done a lot of great things in the past from Talent Shows to Fashion Shows, but that's not all we do for society. The FYO tries to teach the people in the area about our cultural heritage as Filipinos. People can learn more about us and discover how we're just like everyone else, but also how different our background is.
But how do we think up events to do? First of all, we always have to have meetings, just like a "family" meeting, to share and discuss our what we have to say. Basically we have to come up with things that would raise the big buckos along with getting the community involved. That is a key element here, because it's important to let our city know who we are and what we do. Besides being a youth group, we're like one big happy family. We work together, socialize, share ideas with each other, laugh, and smile. We even argue a little, but then we always work it out in the end.
