At the core of the Alumnae Association's network is a unique and dedicated group of volunteers.
All alumnae volunteers are guided by the Association's mission to connect alumnae to one another and to the College. We are always looking for alumnae interested in sharing their time, energy and Wellesley spirit.
Often, alumnae are wary about becoming a volunteer. They worry about the time commitment necessary to give back to Wellesley. Have no fear! There are numerous opportunities through the Alumnae Association. The perfect volunteer role is waiting for you!
Class Volunteers
Connect classmates throughout the year. Class officers are elected every five years during reunion weekend and help keep the class connected through mini-reunions, newsletters, email updates, and class websites. To find out how you can volunteer for your class, contact your class president.
Club Volunteers
Focus their efforts in their home area - keeping alumnae connected around the world. Club volunteers help plan local events such as luncheons, lectures, museum tours, and book groups. To find out how you can become a club volunteer, contact your local club president.
Reunion Volunteers
Plan your class activities for reunion weekend. The president of the class appoints a reunion chair who then recruits a committee. Volunteers organize the class socials, dinner, picnic, and other class-specific events. To find out how you can volunteer for your reunion committee, contact your class president.
Shared Identity Groups Volunteers
Help keep alumnae connected based on a shared interest or affinity. Volunteers may be part of an informal group committee or a member of a formal board of officers. To find out how you can volunteer for a group, contact the Alumnae Association.
Fundraising Volunteers
Work directly with The Wellesley Fund and Gift Planning Offices to educate their classmates about the significance of alumnae support. To learn how you can volunteer for your class, email The Wellesley Fund team at twf@wellesley.edu or the Gift Planning team at giftplanning@wellesley.edu.
