The Philippine Association of Beaumont Texas (PABT) proudly presents HOPE 2026, an inspiring project that aims to build the first-ever Philippine Cultural Center and a monument dedicated to our national hero, Dr. Jose Rizal, here in Southeast Texas. This initiative is more than just a structure—it is a symbol of pride, unity, and heritage that will serve as a cultural haven for Filipino-Americans and a landmark for the broader Southeast Texas community.

​

Having our own Cultural Center will provide a space to celebrate and preserve the rich history, traditions, and arts of the Philippines. It will offer a place for future generations to connect with their roots, showcasing Filipino culture through educational programs, exhibitions, and community events. Moreover, this Center will become a destination that can attract visitors, boost Filipino tourism, and contribute to the local economy by enhancing the cultural diversity of Beaumont.

​

Your support is crucial to making this vision a reality. Our goal is to raise $1.2 million to fund this transformative project. Every donation, no matter the size, will bring us one step closer to building a legacy that honors Dr. Jose Rizal and ensures the future of Filipino culture in Southeast Texas.

Join us in making HOPE 2026 a reality. Together, we can build a lasting tribute to our heritage.​
