In 1978, a small group of Filipino-Americans met and organized FAAFC in Foster City, California. 　The group felt that there was a need for identification of Filipinos as a vital ethnic group and that they could contribute to the socio-economic, cultural and political development of the newly charted city of Foster city. 　

FAAFC was incorporated in 1979. FAAFC amended Constitution in March 12, 2004 and March 18, 2005 to extend memberships to San Francisco Bay Area and persons who have expressed desire to participate and promote the purpose of the organization.

FAAFC aims to preserve, strengthen and enhance the spirit of unity among its members in order to protect their mutual interests, improve their social and economic well-being, preserve and promote their national, historic and cultural heritage, and gain respect and recognition from the general community.

Membership is open to all who are entitled to membership by virtue of Philippine ancestry, along with their husbands, wives, and/or children of legal age and any persons who have expressed the desire to participate and promote the purpose of this organization. g
