WELCOME TO THE HOME OF

PILIPINO CATHOLIC BRUINS

About Kawan

We are the UCLA Pilipino Catholic Association, a college, Christian community founded in 2021 to celebrate the Pilipino Catholic culture and faith at the #1 public university in America.

Kawan welcomes students, alumni, and friends of all backgrounds into the community. As part of the University Catholic Center, Kawan fosters a familial and uplifting space for its members while they explore the Christian faith and teachings of Jesus Christ through the Pilipino lens. To the Pilipino Catholics, this is a college bahay (home) we want to welcome you into, where you may congregate and be in fellowship with your siblings-in-Christ!

We welcome you to Kawan!
