Affinity Groups

A.L.M.A. event gathering during True Blue Weekend 2022

Many alumni maintain strong ties to Franklin & Marshall through their Greek organizations, sports teams, student organizations or other shared interests. The Office of Alumni Engagement, in partnership with the Franklin & Marshall College Alumni Association Board, is eager to help alumni engage with fellow members of their F&M affinity groups by providing a system of recognition for new groups, assisting with on-campus and regional event planning, providing contact information for fellow group members, assisting with communication to fellow affinity members and offering opportunities to work with the board in alumni engagement. To learn more about affinity program guidelines, consult our Alumni Affinity Handbook.

To get involved or to inquire about starting a new affinity group, contact Director of Alumni and Volunteer Engagement Donna Pflum at 717-358-4266 or dpflum@fandm.edu.

Student Engagement Opportunities

Alumni Leaders of Tomorrow (ALOT)

The F&M Alumni Leaders of Tomorrow program engages a small group of junior and senior students through education on the importance of a lifelong relationship with the College, volunteerism and meaningful mentorship.

  4. Exclusive opportunities to be involved with on-campus events like True Blue Weekend and Day of Giving

Expectations:
  1. Attend one ALOT meeting per month with the opportunity to interact with key figures from the College and Alumni Association

Student Philanthropy

The Student Philanthropy  Committee and the Senior Campaign is a long-standing tradition at F&M, inviting students, particularly seniors, to make a gift to the College that creates a lasting legacy for future F&M students. Current seniors contribute to a collective class gift and take their first steps down the path of philanthropy.

Student Philanthropy is the perfect way to express gratitude for your F&M experience while also taking part in making sure that this experience continues to make us proud.

To learn more and get involved, contact Director of Alumni & Volunteer Engagement Donna Pflum at dpflum@fandm.edu.
