The Filipino Intercollegiate Networking Dialogue, Inc.
(FIND, Inc.) is a student-led organization dedicated to
promoting unity and cooperation among Filipino &
Filipino-American students.
Based in the East Coast, FIND, Inc. currently serves over

FIND, Inc. was founded in 1992 when it was apparent that
there was a need to create a space in which East Coast
Filipino & Filipino-American students may get together to
talk about and celebrate the Filipino heritage. FIND, Inc.
was created to unify Filipino student organizations in the
East Coast in order for groups to cooperate and successfully
create dialogue amongst one another.
