The Kuya Ate Mentorship Program (KAMP) started informally in 2007 as a group of college and recently graduated college students who shared a common vision: to forge relationships with younger Filipin@ American youth in San Diego county in order to build critical knowledge about our identity, history and culture.
Initially designed as a series of sala talks, or open discussions in our living rooms, the founders of what was soon to be called KAMP realized that many of the youth we wanted to reach out to had no basic knowledge of Filipino American studies and history.
KAMP will be workshop presenters at Magkaisa High School conference this year. Make sure you stop by and say HELLO!
