A Tribute to Our Lapu-Lapu Celebration
This past weekend, what was meant to be a celebration of culture, connection, and community was deeply impacted by a heartbreaking incident. While this tragedy shifted the atmosphere of our gathering, it does not diminish the spirit in which we came together.
We pause to respectfully honour those we have lost and send strength, love, and support to all who have been affected.
In the face of sorrow, we witnessed something powerful: the strength of unity, resilience, and compassion. As a community, we stand in solidarity with the Filipino community and everyone touched by this event. Our hearts are with you.
We would also like to remind everyone that counseling resources are available if you need someone to talk to or seek support. Please don’t hesitate to reach out at:

Amid the sadness, we also want to shine a light on the beautiful moments we shared, because those moments matter, too.
As the Filipino community proudly says, “Mabuhay!” – Long Life!
We are grateful to everyone who joined us, shared food and laughter, and built meaningful connections throughout the event.
During the basketball game, we saw a touching display of teamwork, pride, and community spirit. Our campus came alive with energy, learning, and joy as we embraced the richness of Filipino culture.
These moments remind us of the strength we find in one another. At Acsenda, we are committed to uplifting these bright moments, celebrating the bonds that unite us and honouring the resilience that defines our community.
Let’s continue to support one another, celebrate life together, and hold space for those in need of hope and healing.
With peace, unity, and care—always.
