Goal
Grow engaged constituents by 2,000, raise alumni giving participation to 24 percent, and raise $24 million in unrestricted annual giving.
The University of Rochester will only thrive with active engagement of its alumni, students, parents, and friends.
We are launching a University-wide campaign to increase awareness about—and participation in— our expanding alumni and constituent engagement programs. By 2021, we will engage 10,000 new constituents through events, fundraising, volunteerism, and other modes of connection.
By connecting more people to benefit one another, alumni and friends will strengthen the University and make the world ever better.
The University of Rochester experience doesn’t end when you graduate. You are always part of the global family.

At the University of Rochester, engagement matters.
Go. Give. Help. Connect. In 2017, more than 76,000 alumni, parents, and friends did just that. Across the country, more than 3,000 alumni volunteer leaders like Tiffany Taylor-Smith ’91 are hosting events, meeting classmates, mentoring students, and encouraging philanthropy. Why? Because no matter when they graduated or where they live today, they know that engaging with the University and connecting with each other helps build a stronger Rochester network.
