"The Fulfillment Fund has helped me in so many ways...from providing me with a mentor, SAT training sessions and the opportunity to intern, to giving me the hope and support I needed to get through college and start my career."

Fulfillment Fund Alumni Liaison Announcement
It is with great joy that I announce my new role at the Fulfillment Fund as the official Alumni Association Liaison. My goal is not only to increase the alumni participation with the Fulfillment Fund, but also to be the voice of the alumni to the Fulfillment Fund.
My first task will be to re-instate the Alumni Association. Within the next months, I will be working diligently to establish the association in hopes of launching it at the beginning of next fiscal year, which begins July 1st, 2010. In the meantime, if you have not done so already, I urge you to join the Alumni group on Facebook to receive current information on upcoming events, volunteer opportunities and more.
Thank you for being patient over these past two years. I feel confident there are great things to come with the Alumni Association!
Sincerely,
Veronica Lopez
Development Data Manager
