For every child who will inherit the future we build, may we never forget the courage and sacrifice that made our freedoms possible. 🇺🇸🇵🇭

This Memorial Day, Filipino Americans honor those who served with bravery and gave everything for generations they would never meet. Because of them, we continue to dream, serve, and rise together with gratitude.

We remember — today and every day.

🏈🇵🇭 This AANHPI Heritage Month, NaFFAA proudly celebrates a historic moment for Filipino American representation in sports.

Filipino American cornerback Chris Johnson was selected by the Miami Dolphins with the 27th overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, becoming a first-round NFL Draft pick and one of the highest-drafted Filipino American football players in NFL history.

A standout athlete from San Diego State University, Johnson earned national recognition for his outstanding college career and achievements on the field. His journey reflects the growing impact of Filipino Americans across sports, leadership, public service, business, and many other fields.

During this month of celebration and reflection, we honor the many Filipino Americans whose stories continue to inspire future generations to pursue excellence, serve their communities, and proudly embrace their heritage. 🇵🇭🇺🇸

Congratulations, Chris Johnson! Your NaFFAA family is incredibly proud of you. Mabuhay ka! ✨
