Your Community of Yale Alumni, Parents and Students in the Sunny Palm Beaches

The Yale Club of the Palm Beaches, Inc. is a not-for-profit corporation organized under the State of Florida, created for charitable and educational purposes in the tradition of Yale University. We seek to serve the over 1,200 alumni, parents and students in Palm Beach County.

The Club is dedicated to the promotion of the welfare of Yale, the preservation of its traditions of excellence in education, community service, and the advancements of Yale’s historically respected values in Palm Beach County, Florida. The Club seeks to advance those principles through an active and vigorous local alumni association.

The specific purposes of the Club, as stated in our By-Laws, are:

  • To strengthen and support an engaged community of Yale alumni, parents and friends in the Club;

  • To encourage and facilitate the participation of alumni in the continuing life of Yale;

  • To promote Yale in the Club and encourage the interest of qualified applicants to Yale, including to assist Yale in the recruitment thereof;

  • To further the intellectual life of its members and enhance the sense of belonging and mutual assistance among members of the Yale community residing in the Club;

  • To sponsor and participate in service opportunities in the Club;

  • To give back to the Club community in recognition of the privilege and responsibility that come with holding a Yale degree, as manifested in outreach initiatives to, social justice movements for, and pursuit of positive impacts on, communities in the Club; and

  • To raise funds for charitable purposes, including the raising of scholarship funds for Yale students, contributions for a specific purpose or general support of Club or Yale, and promoting the donation of gifts to Yale.
