REDWOOD CITY, CA, June 5, 2014 – After supporting the the successful holding of the 36th Santacruzan and Flores De Mayo in Jersey City last May 25, the longest running Filipino celebration of that kind in the East Coast, The Filipino Channel’s (TFC) Sama Saya 2014 event calendar sizzles this June and July with exciting festivities showcasing world-class Filipino talent and the best of Filipino culture.
“What we started last April with our TFC 20th anniversary gala with the promise of celebrating the “galing” or innate greatness of the Filipino continues throughout various states, provinces, cities in North America through TFC Sama Saya 2014,” said ABS-CBN North America Managing Director Olivia De Jesus.
“We are outreaching to more states and organizations where there is a robust Filipino presence as part of our mission to serve the Filipino wherever he or she may be,” said ABS-CBN North America Marketing Director Jun Del Rosario, also concurrently ABS-CBN Global Head for Carriage.
