Break The Ice is one of KABA’s three main events for the year. It is the first event of the year whose main purpose is to integrate both new and old members into the club through a variety of fun Filipino games, group activities, and of course, delicious Filipino food. Break the Ice is the first impression for new members of UBC Kababayan, and it’s the best way to learn more about the Kaba community, as well as what we’re all about!
Halo-Halloween is the second of KABA’s three main events of the year, and it’s Kaba’s version of a Halloween party - Filipino style! Attendees can expect to play hilariously fun group games, dress up in the wackiest or scariest costumes, but most importantly, eat the dessert that is a favorite amongst all Filipinos alike--Halo Halo!

Barrio Fiesta is the last of KABA’s three main events of the year, and it serves as KABA’s end of the year, wrap -up event. It’s both a recognition and celebration of the Kaba year, where execs get to say their thank yous and goodbyes in the form of speeches, and of course, a look back at the exciting year and all that was achieved. But of course, no Filipino celebration is complete without Filipino food, which can also be expected at Kaba’s last event of the year, Barrio Fiesta.
Held every third week of the month, KABA Meet is the club’s Annual General Meeting. This event aims to further connect our members and executive team by initiating socialization and providing updates on the club’s monthly activities. This event is open to everyone, both members and non-members, to have an idea of what it feels like to be part of our KABAmilya.
As our name suggests, one of our missions is to help our Kababayans in need. We aim to have fundraising events each year, with the proceeds going towards charitable causes, including hosting our annual end-of-the-year “Barrio Fiesta” and other fundraisers for various philanthropic causes in the Philippines.
KABA's Career Events focuses on the professional development of its members by inviting Filipinos who have settled in Vancouver to make a living. As a club, we aim to inspire the members of UBC Kaba to find a starting point from there to further develop their careers. Moreover, with the collaboration of the KABA's Career Portal, we hope you get inspired, to learn, and expand your horizons for the different opportunities ahead of you.
Our wellness events aim to bring awareness and support to your mental health. They provide members with tips and activities that help them de-stress from various challenges they are currently experiencing. Furthermore, UBC KABA invites speakers with a psychology background to enlighten members about how important mental health is and how to find alternatives to remove the anxieties that cloud our minds.
