Now more than ever, as the Bard MBA program continues to grow and mature in the new times we are living in, we want our 90+ Alumni across six cohorts to benefit from a robust Alumni Fund to support the following initiatives:
- Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) 
- Expand and build a diverse speaker roster (e.g., honorariums) 
- Career and Skill Development Case Competition Scholarships 
- Industry/Professional Conference Scholarships 
- Alumni Awards/Gifts (e.g., support for “Disrupt to Sustain” teams) 

What a year this has been. We know the crisis has affected everyone in different ways. We started 2020 with ambitious fundraising goals, but as the COVID-19 pandemic and the Black Lives Matter movement unfolded, we took some time to regroup as a committee and review our fundraising plan.  

We understand that each person is in a different situation and we invite you to give the amount that inspires you!  There are also other ways to support the Bard MBA Community. The Alumni Community is happy to receive In-Kind donations such as:
- Volunteer to host or provide a space for events 
- Speak to current students as a guest lecturer 
- Participate as a panelist 
- Attend Open Houses 
- Serve as a Judge for “Disrupt to Sustain” events 
- Mentor current students
