The Catanduanes International Association, Inc. had it's 5th Grand Reunion in South San Francisco, California last August 1st - 3rd, 2003. It was a very well attended reunion of Catandunganons from all over the USA , Canada and the Philippines. Credit is due to the officers and members of the Calolbon Civic Association, USA who hosted the occasion. The very energetic president. Nilo Arcilla and his wife Amy along with all its officers were so determined that everybody was enjoying the camaraderie of everyone present, the food, and entertainment.

I would like to request all Chapter Organizations to submit to me any activities for fund raising they might have so we could post it on our website to reach out to as many Catandunganons .. We need your wholehearted support and commitment for us to be able to accomplish our goal. In my inaugural speech I reiterated my short and powerful message to all the past officers, volunteers and all Catandunganons to PLEASE NOT TO ABANDON THE CIA. Inc. because it is only with your support and commitment that we will realize our goal

To those who are determined to volunteer please start gathering medical supplies. medicines and think of ways and means to generate funds for the mission. Thank you.
