On behalf of 4,000 members of our national organization, we invite you to honor our living and fallen
heroes who fought for us and our freedom.
Would your family or organization be interested in nominating a Filipino
American veteran to be included in this website and in future publications?
For years to come, children,
grandchildren, relatives and far-away friends can remember your hero's sacrifices in the war and his dreams of a better
life for his family and country.
For a Family membership of $100 or more, your veteran's short story and photos will
be displayed in this website. See Nomination Form.
We will also provide you a "Fil-Am Vets in Action" DVD/VHS video of
our equity campaign in Washington DC and updates.
We, the American Coalition for Filipino Veterans, Inc., an
advocacy organization based in Arlington, Virginia, and our allies have won victories now worth about $38 MILLION in annual
benefits for 29,000 elderly Filipino WWII veterans and their dependents.
