Where Affinity Is Actionable

Your connection to George Mason University doesn’t end at graduation; it grows and evolves with every chapter of your personal and professional life. Through your support of the Alumni Association, you have the power to shape the experiences and opportunities for each generation as well as future Patriots.

Whether you fund scholarships, strengthen alumni chapters, or fuel meaningful engagement programs, your gift ensures that the George Mason legacy lives on through its vibrant alumni community.

Mason really underscored the power of community, the power of collaboration, and just the idea that don’t be afraid to ask, don’t be afraid to dream, or to think that something can’t be done.

Alumni Association

Your gifts to the Alumni Association are an investment in deeper affinities, stronger networks, and engagement across disciplines and industry partnerships.

Why the Alumni Association? Why Now? Why You?

From honoring the leadership of Peter C. Forame, John C. and Louise P. Wood, and the Hine Family through endowed scholarships to empowering academic and regional alumni chapters’ high-impact engagement initiatives, every contribution makes a difference and continues the story of Patriot Pride. Your support will:

  • Build endowments for student, faculty, and alumni program support.
  • Provide flexible discretionary funding for the Office of Alumni Relations.
  • Sustain long-term initiatives that build affinity and foster engagement from career support to signature events.

Your donations ensure that your impact lives on and George Mason continues to evolve as a strong, engaged force for good.

After I was in the military, Mason gave me the chance to complete my degree. It was natural for me to want to give back.
