$10 for food + drink and a suggested donation of $10 for the Pride Resource Fund*
Join the New York City Young Alumni Chapter for an evening of community and connection as we close out the Change Can't Wait campaign while supporting our LGBTQIA+ Eagles. Enjoy the company of fellow alums and help raise funds for American University's LGBTQIA+ student community (gifts by recent graduates (last 10 years) to the Pride Resource Fund will be matched 2:1 (up to $150K) thanks to the Finish Line Initiative**).
Let's come together to celebrate LGBTQIA+ Pride Month in NYC while making a tangible difference in the lives of our fellow Eagles. All are welcome!
*The Pride Resource Fund plays a vital role in ensuring that AU students have a consistent and safe place to call home, especially after coming out and/or affirming their gender identity, sexuality, or gender expression. Your generous support helps provide crucial resources, including emergency housing during breaks, semester-long housing, and groceries for students in need.
** The Finish Line Initiative: Inspired by students who formed the Finish Line committee to help motivate participation in the last stretch of the Change Can’t Wait Campaign, an anonymous alumnus has committed a $1 million challenge gift to expand the Finish Line Initiative, a call for the entire AU community to join them and help Change Can’t Wait reach its $500 million goal this summer
