Filipino Club ' ' Kaibigans ' Kaibigan means friendship, which is what the Filipino Club promotes this year. The organization was started a few years ago by the Filipinos at Artesia. This year, the club is led by President Jen- nifer Evidente. They have plans of helping the community by visiting the elderly in local nursing homes as well as young children in nearby preschools . In addition, the Filipino Club had a booth at the carnival and participated in various fund raisers and other school activities. As the school year ended, the Filipino Club left Artesia with memories of kaibigan that will last forever. Filipino Club: Bottom row, L to R: ShcUa Anonco, Arlene Acosta, Lynette Arevalo.
