DancePinoy.com is opening its doors soon! Since its inception in year 2009, the online portal has served the underrepresented community of dancers in the Philippines and became the pillar of the dance community as we know now.
The management and operations of DancePinoy.com will be transferred to OBRAA, a newly established 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based in California, United States. The website's focus from this point will be overseas Filipino dancers who found their way of success outside the Philippine dance floor. We aim to show how great Filipino dancers across borders and promote their activities to inspire budding talents.
Who is OBRAA?
The pandemic has affected the most vulnerable of the vulnerable. Asians and Pacific Islanders have been blamed on the ongoing COVID-19. The slander born of xenophobia and ignorance are the motivators behind the foundation of the Organization of Benevolent and Responsible Asians in America or simply known as OBRAA.
The organization promotes social inclusion of AAPI minorities through cultural awareness. We provide quality and relevant wellness, lifestyle, culture and arts programs to US citizens and immigrants of Asian heritage regardless of their immigration status. We aim to be the linking bridge to provide opportunities for budding Asian-American youth and enhance their limitless artistic capabilities and utilize technology to advance grassroot programs serving Asians and Pacific Islander communities.
Our organization stands together with you today and everyday going forward with the general rise in hostility that serves as the tragedy’s backdrop is part of the nation’s long history of brutal bigotry against the AAPI population in California and the rest of the United States of America.
