Please join us for our first meeting of 2011 on Monday, February 7th!

The Development Committee is looking forward to an exciting year fulfilling its mission to promote and support the Yale Alumni Association of Metropolitan New York and its commitment to enrich the cityscape and make a meaningful contribution to our community. Our goals for the year are: to promote the YAAMNY brand to the broader Yale community, to be a forum for multi-generational and multi-class interaction, and to liaison with other Yale organizations. In addition, we are committed to raising funds to execute YAAMNYs vision and to strengthen the Association and further facilitate meaningful engagement with the larger community.

Your presence, insights, and constructive engagement are crucial to our efforts, especially since we are a young and (excuse the pun) developing committee.� We hope you join us in making the Development Committee a magnetic force!

Created just last year, the Development Committee has already become a significant presence in YAAMNY.� In 2010, we hosted�the first ever (and fabulously successful)�Benefit Soiree; organized a book talk with best selling author Ron Chernow; and held a spa-sporting event.���

There's much more to come for 2011! We are planning another Benefit Soiree, capitalizing on the financial success and frankly-- the fun of our inaugural benefit to establish this into an annual much-anticipated event for our community.� Also, monthly dinners filled with lively conversations among alumni are in the works.� There's also work to be done on adding greater sponsorship of our news letter and events.� These are to name just a few.

We look forward to seeing you! If you plan on joining us, please send an email to Anne Moss: This email address is hidden from email harvesters via JavaScript This email address is hidden from email harvesters via JavaScript
