PSUAA Alumni Association

Volunteering

Volunteers are the lifeblood of the PSUAA. Without active members of the Alumni Association, new projects and initiatives could not take place. There are so many ways to get involved; you can choose to volunteer a few hours a year to a few hours a week. It's up to you! We hope that you will consider becoming a volunteer for the Plymouth State University Alumni Association. If you would like to learn more about alumni volunteer opportunities, please call the Office of Alumni Relations at 1-800-772-2620, or e-mail us at alumni@plymouth.edu. We look forward to hearing from you soon!

Volunteering Opportunities

PSUAA Working Groups are the working groups of the PSUAA. Working group members help to make the goals of the Association a reality. Working group members serve for one year and working groups typically meet four times annually. Meetings take place via email, conference calls and on site.
