The Foundation |
|
|
|
The
foundation was created and registered with the Security
Exchange Commission to formally organize a working
group that would unite all Veloso with Phillipine
origin, sharing ideas, some wealth, skills and knowledge
to help clan members in need, not only materially,
but spiritually.
The National Veloso Reunions of 1983 & 2005
and with the Veloso genealogy book, painstakingly
compiled by our very own historian Cirilo Veloso,
had increasingly united Velosos' from all over the
country and even reached the awareness of some of
the Velosos' all over the world. To see the past
and present elected officers for our national and
local chapters, please log-in to our community on-line
site.
