About
Kawan is a Pilipino Catholic student group founded at UCLA in late 2021 and run under the University Catholic Center. Its name is a Tagalog and biblical word for flock, and its patron saints are San Lorenzo Ruiz and San Pedro Calungsod, both tied to the Philippines. Fellowship nights, a Simbang Gabi Advent celebration, an annual retreat and a banquet fill its calendar, along with an Immersion Program and a Discerners group. Students, alumni and friends of any background or faith are welcome.
