Successful Alumni Events in April

 

April 18th and April 25th saw two successful events for FOCUS Alumni in Greater Washington and New York City.  Four key alumni speakers all spoke about the ways in which their lives have been touched by FOCUS. Sarah Lewis, GWA Alum '03 and current New York resident and FOCUS volunteer spoke, saying, "I got involved in FOCUS as a student, but the organization continues to serve me as an adult...I encourage everyone to reconnect with old friends, you never know what you might find in that community." Other speakers included Allison Moller Clausen, Brian Burke, John Moran, Sarah Reimers, and Charlie Drew.  Both events were an excellent way to initiate a $25K matching campaign for alumni donations. As an organization, we were thrilled that so many alumni were able to make it to the events.
