University of Santo Tomas Alumni Homecoming &
Thomasians USA 31st Anniversary
May 5, 2018
Preparations are underway for the 2018 University of Santo Tomas Alumni Homecoming and Thomasians USA’s 31st Anniversary Celebration. This year’s event will bring together alumni,
family and friends, and alumni are full of excitement in anticipation of celebrating their beloved alma mater’s success. The Royal and Pontifical University of Santo Tomas is recognized as one
of the top 200 universities in Asia and one of the top 1000 universities in the world.
In this year’s celebration, Thomasians USA will honor the memory of Alice P. Bulos, co-founder of Thomasians USA and its President for many years. Tita Alice, as she was popularly called,
was a fierce advocate of Educational Empowerment. During her administration, Thomasians USA partnered with Philippine International Aid in the “Off-the-Street/Off-to-School” program
and provided scholarships to economically disadvantaged youths to prepare better future forthem and their families. The organization has also participated in San Mateo County’s Partnership-in-Education program and has provided financial merit awards to graduating
Filipino-American high school students at Westmoor High School in Daly City. Another potential partnership with another school, Jefferson High School also in Daly City, is currently in
the pipeline. Thomasians USA is also a partner of the Alliance for Community Empowerment (ALLICE) and their community education volunteers. Alumni are encouraged to visit ThomasiansUSA page Facebook page at page at
