About the Associates

Harvard College Fund Associates are an extraordinary community of generous alumni, parents, and friends who provide the annual support that allows Harvard College, the Harvard Kenneth C. Griffin Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, and the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences to pursue their academic missions. Leadership gifts help Harvard sustain core commitments, seize new opportunities, and respond to emerging needs.
