Young Alumni Make a Difference
If you’ve graduated in the last 10 years, you know there’s always more to do than can fit in a day. So where you put your free time should count. By giving some of your time to the Cornell Annual Fund, you not only give back to the university and get to meet other Cornellians, your involvement and support makes a real difference to students on campus today.

One of the most important ways to recognize participation in Cornell is to thank people supporting the university. You can help us thank alumni who gave to the Cornell Annual Fund by volunteering for the Thank-You Note program or by hosting a “thankathon” in your home and inviting Cornellians to hand-write thank you notes.
