Ways to give back!

As well as the programs supported through the Director's Excellence Fund, the SPA Alumni Network Fund supports the coordination, administration, and growth of our alumni engagement efforts. This includes maintaining communication platforms, organizing events, and ensuring the infrastructure needed to keep our alumni network active, connected, and impactful. Contributions to this fund help sustain the operations that make meaningful alumni engagement possible.  Your support makes it possible for SPA students to gain a lifelong professional network of peers and mentors who may shape their career paths, while helping alumni stay connected with them and each other.
