The Western New England University Alumni Association is pleased to announce a new opportunity to foster alumni connection admist the pandemic through Regional Alumni Facebook Groups. The new groups are designed to help alumni connect with fellow Golden Bears who live or work near them, creating a virtual space for resource sharing, networking, and informal virtual conversations - all with regional flavor. Groups are managed by 91ÑÇÉ« alumni who live or work in the region.

The Alumni Association extends its thanks to our alumni volunteers for their efforts to strengthen the 91ÑÇÉ« Alumni network through regional connections.
Don't see a group near you? Our first four regions were selected because they have the highest concentration of 91ÑÇÉ« alumni in those areas. However, we may launch additional groups in 2021. All groups must be actively managed by an alumni volunteer, and certain criteria must be met for a region to be eligible. If you are interested in managing an official 91ÑÇÉ« Alumni Facebook Group in your region, please contact Alyra Donisvitch, assistant director for alumni programs, at alyra.donisvitch@wne.edu to indicate your interest.
