Hello fellow Alumni, Fans, and Friends –

 

I want to first say WELCOME! We are excited to continue our growth and presence among all of those affiliated with The University of Alabama.

​

The UA LGBTQ Alumni Association has accomplished a lot in our first five years of existence. In this brief time, we have endowed TWO scholarships that are now awarded annually, dispensed emergency grants during the COVID-19 pandemic, held events both in-person and virtually across the US, and in April 2021 we were granted a seat on the UA National Alumni Association Executive Committee.

​

As we look to the future our sights are set on continuing our mission to:

​

• Strengthen the entire University of Alabama community by elevating the voices of LGBTQ+ persons and their allies

• Foster community among LGBTQ+ persons affiliated with The University of Alabama and their allies

• Develop financial and professional resources for LGBTQ+ students and young professionals affiliated with The University of Alabama

• Ensure that adequate services are provided to LGBTQ+ students so that they can be healthy, happy, and can pursue success on campus and beyond

 

To make these things happen WE NEED YOU! I encourage you to BECOME A MEMBER, get involved, sign up for our newsletter, and help strengthen our UA community and our LGBTQ+ family.

​

Roll Tide,

Russell C. Howard
President (2022-2024)
