Volunteer Agreement

We value your commitment to Wellesley, and we want to be clear in our expectations for how you engage as a volunteer on behalf of the Alumnae Association. This Volunteer Agreement articulates core commitments that we expect from all of our volunteers.

Thank you for all you do for Wellesley! 

Please acknowledge the following:

As a volunteer I will...

1. Be guided by the Volunteer Tenets.
    
2. Give to The Wellesley Fund at a capacity that is comfortable for me by June 30 each year.

   One of the most immediate ways you can support today's students is by making a gift to The Wellesley Fund. The Wellesley Fund provides critical and flexible funds that are used to address urgent needs and seize unique opportunities. Your gift ensures an everlasting legacy of Wellesley's mission and community.
    

3. Commit to advancing diversity, equity and inclusion within the alumnae community.
   We have compiled educational resources on these topics that you are encouraged to review. Plan to allot one hour to review this content.
