WPI Alden Voices Alumnae Association

We are having a spring social event! See below for details, or reach out to Linette Davis if you have any questions :)

Congratulations to our newly elected board!
Treasurer - Katrina Bradley
Secretary - Julianna Ziegler
Tour - Yvonne Niebuhr
Delegates- Liz Callahan, Anna Correia, Linette Davis, Katelyn Haley, Olivia Martin, and Parker Milgram

They will be joining our current board members Bailey Adami-Sweet, Katharine Edel, Corinne Rywalt, and Abbie Roane to make up our 2023-2024 board.

We're excited for the rest of Choral Alumni Weekend, and all are welcome at our concert tomorrow at 3:00pm. It will be held at the First Baptist Church of Worcester, right next to the WPI Rooftop field and Higgins House.

Happy Giving Day! We're focusing on the Alden Voices Sostenuto fund, which will help give Alden Voices more resources to challenge its members and provide more opportunities.

If you're looking to donate, follow these steps:
1. Go to https://givingday.wpi.edu/pages/challenges-and-matches-2022 and click "Give" in the top right corner.
2. Select "Alden Voices Sostenuto Fund"
3. Where it says "let us know if an ambassador inspired your gift today" select the lovely Bailey Sweet
4. Fill out the rest of your information and submit!

Today, our goal is to win additional funds for student experience and ambassador most donors. This means that any amount helps - even $5 if it's your first donation to the fund. Donating during the 4-5pm power hour also doubles your donation. If we can get close to the $7,000 goal remaining on the Sostenuto fund, we'd be ecstatic!

As of right now, the Sostenuto and Bailey are at the top of their respective leaderboards. Let's keep up the good work throughout the day!

WPI Giving Day On Giving Day, challenges and matching gifts allow you to amplify your impact, making gifts of any size go further. We’ll continue adding details below as challenges and matches are confirmed—keep checking back in the days and weeks leading up to Giving Day!

Does your phone, water bottle or car window look totally drab? You're in luck because AVAA is having a sticker fundraiser to raise money for an endowment. We're aiming to raise $25k in the next few years, so every little bit helps!
