MEMORIES...is the sequel of Memoirs of UP Alumni Abroad, a UP Centennial publication which donated $50,000 to the University of the Philippines in June 2008. Editor and Publisher, Dr. Menchee Quesada Fulgado, was appointed Commissioner Abroad for the Centennial Celebration. While this was to serve as adviser in fundraising, she took it to heart and offered to rally UP alumni abroad to join her in producing a book to commemorate UP's 100th year, by contributing to the book, which will create a Centennial Scholarship Endowment Fund and a Carillon Support Endowment Fund. The project made all these possible, and in June 2008 she, along with some of the 270 contributors brought their donation and were feted by the UP President, Chancellors and the UP Alumni Association.
