WHY: Because we believe that being Basque can be special, we want to keep alive a culture that has endured across centuries because of what it teaches us about being better people; i.e, the importance of family, community, work ethic, perseverance, language, faith, honor and our roots in an agrarian past that still serve us in an urban, modern world.
