The Aggie Impact Gala (AIG) is a prestigious event that financially helps Black students at Texas A&M University along with honoring former Black students who have made an impact in their communities and professions.

AIG supports higher education in the community through the Aggie Impact Endowment Foundation Excellence Award, which financially supports a gap in funding for deserving Black students: future, current and transfer. The Aggie Impact Gala is a fundraising arm of the Texas A&M Black Former Student Network, a 501©3 recognized Constituent Network of the Texas A&M Association of Former Students.

We encourage you to get involved with the Black Former Student Network and the Association of Former Students in order to reach back and help young Black students maximize their talent and time while attending TAMU. 

Whether you graduated 2 years ago or 2 decades ago, your time, skills, and/or generous donations are invaluable to the BFSN so that we can keep our Vision and Mission strong and vibrant for generations to come.

We are looking for photos of members when they were in college! Send us your favorite photos to be featured in a collage at the 2024 Gala.
