Friendship

We are the only intercollegiate organization with service as its primary mission. Members can lead projects and see them implemented. Services focus on the campus, community, nation, and members.
welcome to
UP Cebu's oldest and largest on-campus organization!
Welcome to APO – UP Cebu! Our chapter is part of Alpha Phi Omega, an international organization of college students and alumni united by a common bond. A co-educational service fraternity, founded on the principles of the International Scouting Movement.
We have made a home here in the University of the Philippines Cebu College since 1979. The campus and its immediate communities have been the prime beneficiaries of our service projects and social activities.
This website was made for both APO and non-APO alike. Here you can find information about the UP Cebu chapter and APO in general, plus several resources on leadership and organizational management. Enjoy!

Ritual Dance of the Brave
The Oblation Run is an annual event held by the University of the Philippines (UP) chapters of Alpha Phi Omega (APO) in the different UP campuses. The runners are full-fledged male members who choose to run voluntarily.
The event was first organized in 1977 at the University of the Philippines Diliman. It draws its name from the Oblation statue which symbolizes “a selfless offering of one’s self to the country.” The event is usually done on December 16, and serves as a protest to contemporary national issues.
