A total of 38 members attended the PAFID General Assembly on 07 May 2011 at the LB Soriano Hall of the SEAMEO-INNOTECH Center on Commonwealth Avenue, Diliman, Quezon City. The assembly provided a venue for the members to get an update about PAFID as well each other. It also provided opportunities for members to rekindle ties and renew friendships.

Fr. Francis Lucas, the incumbent PAFID Chairperson, called the Assembly to order at 1:47 PM. Mr. Sam Pedragosa then made a roll call and introduced the members present.  Having determined that there was a quorum, the general assembly proceeded to do business.

The assembly began with the remaining incumbent members of the PAFID Board of Trustees expressing their messages. They are Fr. Francis Lucas, Rev. Delbert Rice, Datu Vic Saway, and Prof. J. Prospero De Vera.

Mr. Dave De Vera, PAFID Executive Director, presented his report on the status of PAFID and its operations. An open forum followed his presentation. Mr. Pedragosa served as the moderator of the forum.
