Time is Running Out - Reach Out to Filipino Veterans
A recent article by Jonah Lalas on the Huffington Post highlighted the importance and urgency of reaching out to Filipino WWII veterans and ensuring they apply for the claim as there is no organized outreach program and the VA is "relying on the veterans and their families" to contact them.

Our Mission
KAYA is a grassroots organization whose mission is to mobilize the Filipino American community and build partnerships to increase our electoral power, advocate policies that affect our community, and develop leaders to represent us at every level of government.
Kaya means "it's possible" in Filipino or "yes we can."
"The Tagalog word "kaya" embodies the values of change, hope, opportunity, and progress without having to explicitly say the words change, hope, opportunity, and progress," explained Virg Cristobal, the finance director for Kaya. "Moreover, it reflects our mission to address the needs of our Filipino American community effectively and innovatively but it does not exclude non-Filipinos from being a part of our movement...In short, it's an inclusive word that goes beyond ethnic identity."
