Our History
In 1978 a group of Filipinos who have migrated to Toledo, organized themselves, with the purpose of camaraderie and mostly to maintain their culture, and to help each other.
As time passed by, these immigrants became rooted into the culture of another land, but at the same time preserved their own ethnic culture. Members became more successful in their trade and professions. They became involved with their community, church and school activities. They gained respect, and became leaders in their respective fields.
In their desire to help, the less fortunate in their native land and their adopted country, they formed a Charitable Foundation (SCORE) which would be the instrument for the realization of their humanitarian projects.
