How do the Yale Alumni Fund and AYA serve the different needs of the University and the alumni?
The primary mission of the Yale Alumni Fund is to raise unrestricted annual support for the University through the Alumni Fund appeal every year. The Yale Alumni Fund is part of the Yale Office of Development, which focuses on raising all types of support from alumni, parents, corporations, and foundations as well as friends of the University. The Association of Yale Alumni is responsible for organizing alumni events and educational programs such as reunion weekends and alumni assemblies. AYA coordinates activities at Yale Clubs across the country and around the world and supports the work of Class Secretaries and Treasurers. AYA also maintains class listservs and Virtual Yale Station. For further information about AYA, see www.aya.yale.edu.
