José Rizal established it in the house of Doroteo Ongjunco on Ilaya Street in Tondo, Manila. La Liga
Filipina's goal was to create a new organization that would directly involve the people in the reform
movement.
When Rizal founded the La Liga Filipina upon his return to the Philippines in July 1892, it was a stride
ahead in the reformist beliefs of the time since the new group wanted to incorporate the people directly in
the reform movement. Many members of society seeking change were drawn to the Liga, including
Andres Bonifacio, who went on to become one of the organization's founders.
These are the members of La Liga Filipina.
