We seek to advance those principles through an active and vigorous local alumni association. The purposes of Yale Vermont include, but are not limited to, the following:  

  • To strengthen and support an engaged community of Yale alumni, parents and friends in Vermont;
  • To encourage and facilitate the participation of alumni in the continuing life of Yale;
  • To promote Yale in Vermont and encourage the interest of qualified applicants to Yale, including to assist Yale in the recruitment thereof;
  • To further the intellectual life of its members and enhance the sense of belonging and mutual assistance among members of the Yale community residing in Vermont;
  • To sponsor and participate in service opportunities in Vermont;
  • To give back to the Vermont community in recognition of the privilege and responsibility that comes with holding a Yale degree, as manifested in outreach initiatives to, social justice movements for, and pursuit of positive impacts on, communities in Vermont; and
  • To raise funds for charitable purposes, including the raising of scholarship funds for Yale students, contributions for a specific purpose of general support of Yale Vermont or Yale, and promoting the donation of gifts to Yale.
