President's Message

My name is Aviva Feldman, and I am so excited to be the new president of the Chicago Wellesley Club! Deciding to go to Wellesley was the best decision I ever made and shaped who I am in so many ways. I am honored to have the opportunity to support the alumnae in and around Chicago in staying connected to our Wellesley community so that we can continue to grow, learn, and enjoy time together.

As a member of the class of 2019, I am a young alum. In my role as president I hope to increase the engagement of my fellow young alumnae so that we can build a multigenerational club. I believe this will strengthen us in a multitude of ways, including revitalizing our programming and opening up opportunities for younger alums to learn from and build relationships with alumnae who have more experience both in the workforce and in life in general.

At the start of my tenure I plan to listen and learn from those who have been serving the Club as I get my bearings. As time goes on I plan to do programming to build the engagement of our younger alumnae and create relationships across generations within the Club. My email is afeldma3@wellesley.edu - please email me with any suggestions, concerns, questions, etc.! I look forward to hearing from you and seeing you at events this year.
