Filipino-American History Month Luncheon
In honor of Filipino American History Month, the Stanford Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery's DEI-Wellness Committee hosted a special luncheon to celebrate the rich heritage and contributions of the Filipino American community on October 16, 2024. Attendees enjoyed a vibrant afternoon filled with delicious Filipino food, engaging conversations, and inspiring speaker and dance presentations.
