Pilipino Recruitment and Enrichment Program

Pilipino Recruitment and Enrichment Program is a community service organization with a mission to equip our executive board and general members with a greater understanding of the importance of higher education, while fostering exploration of cultural identity. We seek to learn the needs of not only our own community but also on the needs of others. The culmination of these efforts are in hope that those involved with the organization will grow to be leaders and share their knowledge with those around them to empower and educate. We carry out these values through our main entities: Service with Intent to Empower (SITE) visits, Day in A Life (DIAL), Kababayan Pilipinx Weekend for Admits (KaPWA), and our Internship. Our vision for this upcoming year includes emphasizing growing our impact as a community service organization as well as our influence as a first-year pipeline into the wider Pilipinx community at UCLA. We aim to provide a space in which these new students are easily able to explore the resources available and foster friendships among themselves and other UCLA students.
