Yale Alumni,
Join us for our 5th 1stGenYale Alumni & Students Picnic during Yale Family Weekend and help our students feel part of the celebration.
Did you know that nearly 1 in 4 Yale College students come from first-generation, low-income (FGLI) backgrounds?
While many students will not have family on campus this special weekend, that's where you can show that alumni are their family, too. We want students to know that they are not alone...You will make that difference!
