UniPro San Diego

UniPro was founded on June 12, 2009 in Woodside, Queens to resolve the unsettling division among Pilipino American community groups at the time. The organization was officially established on August 14, 2009 with a launch event at the Philippine Consulate General in New York's Kalayaan Hall. Since then, UniPro has founded chapters in cities across the country to better serve and connect our communities.
