FSM Culture Day on Hawai’i

Every year the Federated States of Micronesia celebrates FSM Culture Day with a national holiday celebrated on March 31st in all four states. It’s a day for our people and community to come together and celebrate our cultures and more importantly to teach our young people of the importance of maintaining our cultures and to have great pride in who they are and where they come from. MU-BI would like to extend the FSM Culture Day to our community here on Big Island. Let’s all work together and get our community ready for March 31, 2013 for the first annual FSM Culture Day
