On July 1, 2022, Penn State transferred to a "One" Membership Model. If you belong to the Alumni Association, you automatically belong to your local chapter.
Local chapters are no longer collecting dues.
For the new model to work, the Alumni Association needs your updated contact info.
Update your Penn State Alumni Association contact info here!
Why the local chapter needs your support
We are responsible for raising funds to sustain our chapter student scholarship. We have awarded thousands of dollars to help offset the cost of out-of-state tuition.
We also distribute "Care Cards" - gift cards to students to spend on snacks, etc., during final exam studies. Each fall semester, we send them to students from Hampton Roads attending any commonwealth campus.
