Support the Karangalan Scholarship

It has been my pleasure to serve on the Karangalan Scholarship Committee for a few years now. Being able to recognize outstanding Filipino/Filipino-American students and their awesome achievements makes my job all the more rewarding!



Karangalan is a Tagalog word that means, “pride, dignity, and honor.

For over a decade the Sweetwater Union High School District has sponsored the Karangalan Scholarship. Due to budgetary constraints, the SUHSD can no longer support the scholarship.

Therefore, the friends and family of the Filipino educators of the SUHSD is asking for the support of the community to continue the spirit of the Karangalan Scholarship.
