Teodora Alonzo Lodge of the Legionarios de Trabajo

On March 17, 1935, the Teodora Alonzo Ludge of the Legionarios del Trabajo was organized. Named after the mother of Jose Rizal, she is widely credited as the national hero's first teacher. Her role as a foundation for Rizal's success was symbolic, as the Legionarios del Trabajo is a fraternal organization that supported many Filipino Americans as early as the nineteenth century.
