Inspire Impact at Penn

Get Involved

Alumni are a vital source of strength for Penn, bringing their passion and energy to all corners of the University. Penn’s global network of loyal alumni give their time, knowledge, and resources to propel our mission forward. Here are some of the many ways you can get involved.

Go

Whether you return to campus for annual traditions like Homecoming and Alumni Weekend, attend Penn events in your home city, participate in alumni education and career networking opportunities, or take part in Penn Spectrum or Young Alumni programs, attending Penn events inspires lifelong learning and keeps you meaningfully connected to the University community—wherever you are in the world.

Give

Support your alma mater by including Penn among your philanthropic priorities. Annual giving provides resources equal to the return on a $1.5 billion endowment, so you can make a significant, ongoing impact at Penn by giving every year.
