Pilar College Alumni Association

Then VS NOW📍PILAR COLLEGE – Oldest School in Zamboanga City 🏫
~1934 vs. 2026
92 years ago..

.If today the Pilar College is not the Old Pilar Institution that it was in the past, we can only smile and say — "It was beautiful, but it belongs with the past and there it will beautifully stay."

- excerpt from Zamboanga Hermosa-Memories of the Old Town, Antonio E. Orendain II. (1984)

PROUD PILARIST ALUMNI.

It’s been years, even decades, since they graduated from Pilar College of Zamboanga City, Inc. But still they carry the school spirit with them.

These are your Pilarist Alumni Basketball Team proudly representing the school in the Inter Alumni Basketball League, competing with other Alumni teams from different schools in Zamboanga City as well.

Let’s go Pilaristas!

As a Catholic educational institution, we stand in solidarity with the call of the Catholic Education Association of the Philippines (CEAP) to declare this day as an academic break. This observance invites our school community to pause, reflect, remember and renew our response to the present situation and challenges facing our country today through the lessons of the EDSA People Power Revolution.

We encourage everyone to keep the EDSA spirit alive in the heart of the Filipinos by taking time for prayer, reflection, and small personal sacrifices that promote transparency, accountability, truth, justice, unity, and love of country.

Let this Cuarenta Anniversary be an opportunity for us to renew our commitment to the Gospel values that guided our nation during this historic moment.
