Independence Day in the
City of Carson. PIDF holds the pageant as a fundraiser for its projects
as well as organizing the Philippine Independence Day celebration at the Veterans Park on June 7.
The Independence Day event has drawn
close to thousands of Filipino immigrants and Filipino Americans who
watch multicultural presentations and musical talents. There are also
food and information booths and cultural exhibits. Last year GMA popular
actress Marian Rivera and Rafael Rosell were the entertainers from the
Philippines who came to Carson. PIDF also donates to the substance abuse
campaigns, the Simbang Gabi event of St.Philomena Church and the
fundraising efforts to help the typhoon victims of Leyte.
