Seeking Volunteers! |

Would you like to help run the Wellesley Club of Silicon Valley? We are currently recruiting new Board Members to help organize and run events, like the April Hidden Villa Farm Tour. We are also looking for volunteers who can host club events at their homes or offices in the future. If you’re interested, please contact us to get more information: WCSiliconValley@alum.wellesley.edu.
Send a Note to a Senior
This year’s Wellesley seniors have had a college experience like no other. After a traditional first year, their sophomore, junior and senior years were upended by the pandemic—separating friends, estranging students from campus, and challenging them to pivot academically while maintaining their pursuit of a rigorous Wellesley education. Many students have missed classic Wellesley milestones like Flower Sunday, Stepsinging, and Marathon Monday. As the 500+ students in the purple Class of 2022 prepare for what comes next, the Alumnae Association is asking the Wellesley alumnae community to show our soon-to-be alums that one thing remains constant: the incredible support and camaraderie of the global Wellesley community. Send a handwritten letter of support by May 9th to our soon-to-be alums in the purple Class of 2022. For more details, please visit the campaign page.
