The University of the Philippines, the premier public university of the Philippines, serves over 60,000 students and 7,000 faculty members, dependent on government funding for its operations and making it susceptible to the changing priorities and decisions of politicians. With scholarships available for fewer than 500 students and many faculty receiving low salaries and inadequate research funds, the UPAAA aims to unite alumni and other supporters of UP to collaborate on initiatives to lend support.



We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization

of alumni of the

University of the Philippines

and other supporters of our Alma Mater.






We bring together former UP students from diverse disciplines who have settled outside the Philippines, fostering connections among them and

with the University.



We facilitate the provision of financial and professional support within the UP system, assisting deserving students with limited resources, alumni seeking further education, and faculty members dedicated to impactful roles in nation-building.


OUR IMPACT

UPAAA members fund stipend scholarships and other forms of assistance in

various UP Constituent Universities and one autonomous college.
