Filipino Young Professionals of Austin, Texas (FYP ATX) was founded in spring 2017 as a social networking group and has since evolved into a nonprofit celebrating and strengthening Filipino identity through arts and culture, community service, networking, professional development, and youth mentorship. As Austin grows and diversifies, FYP ATX continues to adapt—responding to the community’s needs for creative expression, cultural connection, professional and personal growth.

Our mission is to empower the Filipino and Austin community through creative expression, leadership, and mentorship—infused with Filipino cultural values and perspectives. Through our programs, specifically our arts and culture initiatives, we create spaces that honor heritage, amplify underrepresented voices, and showcase the creativity of Filipino Americans and allies in Austin’s vibrant cultural landscape.

Despite the name, FYP ATX has no age, cultural, or career limitations. All are welcome! There is nothing better than finding Kababayan (community) to celebrate our beautiful Filipino culture with. From business connections to best friends, lifelong bonds start here!
