Campaign Leadership
A Shared Success
The For Humanity campaign brought the worldwide Yale community together. Alumni, parents, and friends worked together with a shared purpose: to create a better world through supporting Yale. Volunteers helped fundraise for the Yale Alumni Fund, class reunion gifts, and the overall For Humanity campaign.
Campaign volunteers include five co-chairs, honorary chairs, a campaign committee, regional advisory groups, and groups focused on key audiences and key priorities such as support for students, Yale’s collections, and innovation. They were ably supported by the broader efforts of the Yale Alumni Association (YAA).
Yale is deeply grateful to the everyone who gave of their time and talent to make For Humanity a success.

For Humanity felt like the perfect way to encapsulate why a great liberal arts university like Yale exists. We’re giving students the range of experience, combined with the freedom to take risks and follow curiosity, that shapes leaders who can find creative solutions to complex problems.
Working alongside faculty, staff, students, and fellow alumni, I saw firsthand what stewardship means at Yale—each generation inheriting a university shaped by those before, and accepting responsibility for strengthening it for those who follow.
What we’ve shown throughout this campaign is that whatever the field, Yale can be a partner with the scale, mission, and power to make a real difference.
I am so proud of this network of dedicated volunteers that has grown through the campaign. They help ensure Yale’s future through good times and bad.
Seeing such passion from everyone I have spoken to during this period has made me feel proud to be a part of the campaign. It is a wonderful reminder that we are all custodians for the future.
