Events—2025-2026

The FDMCC held its first meeting of the 2025–2026 school year with twenty-five members in attendance. The meeting focused on setting goals for the new academic year and selecting the officers who would lead the club. Members discussed upcoming cultural events and continued the club’s mission to promote Micronesian unity, brotherhood, and leadership within the FDMS community. 

The Father Duenas Micronesia Cultural Club promotes Micronesian culture through service, leadership, and community involvement. One of the club’s recent initiatives was a Giving Tuesday donation drive in partnership with Operation Christmas Drop. The project began with a school assembly where the Operation Christmas Drop team shared their mission with the FD student body, building awareness about humanitarian aid to Micronesian islands.

Donation boxes were placed in key locations on campus, and students were encouraged to participate through schoolwide messages and student leader outreach. With support from students, staff, and families, the drive collected canned goods, hygiene products, school supplies, toys without batteries, and slippers. These items will be delivered to families in remote Micronesian communities with limited access to everyday resources.

Through projects like this, the Micronesia Cultural Club turns cultural pride into action, strengthening connections between Father Duenas and Micronesia while encouraging students to serve with purpose and responsibility.

On March 28, 2026, the FDMCC once again presented a commercial during Songfest, building upon the foundation set the previous year. The updated video highlighted the club’s growth, increased membership, and expanded involvement in cultural and leadership activities. This second appearance reflected the club’s continued presence on campus and its commitment to promoting Micronesian identity through creativity and school-wide engagement.
