A NEWSLETTER FOR YALE CAMPAIGN VOLUNTEERS
|
|
|
Last month, Yale celebrated the inauguration of our twenty-fourth president, Maurie McInnis. Next, commencement and reunions are on the horizon. These events, infused with tradition, feel especially welcome amid a dizzying news cycle. They are opportunities to come together and recognize Yale’s mission of research and education to improve the world.
I was glad for the chance to gather with many of you for that purpose at the Volunteer Leadership Forum. As we prepare for the final year of the For Humanity campaign, it was wonderful to convene, celebrate the campaign’s impact so far, and strategize about how to finish strong. We ended the two days inspired and energized, and I am excited about our momentum.

Thank you to all of our volunteers who helped to make the forum such a success. Over twenty-five of you participated in planning, encouraging attendance, moderating or sharing your stories on a panel, or facilitating small group discussions. And, thank you to everyone who came to New Haven for two activity-filled days!
