CYFAMilya is what
propels us forward.

At the core of CYFAM's endeavors is the profound Filipino concept of kapamilya, which symbolizes more than just family—it's a bond of unity, support, and unconditional love. This ethos inspires CYFAM to create a nurturing environment where every individual is valued, fostering a sense of belonging and empowering a community that extends its warmth and care beyond its immediate circle.
