The PCC is a not-for-profit, member-based organization whose mission is to serve the Filipino-Canadian community through programs and services that address their needs and support their aspirations to integrate in and contribute to an inclusive, secure and prosperous Canada.

Established in 1999 and operating mainly in the National Capital Region in its early years, its programs have now reached Filipino-Canadians across Canada through its strategic use of social media and other digital platforms. The PCC is led by its professional Board of Directors, dedicated volunteers and supportive members.
