Supporting Our Community

Welcome to the online donations page for the Rutgers African American Alumni Alliance (RAAA), Inc. RAAA is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization and an all volunteer organization, operates independently of the University to support educational programming, cultural awareness and is primarily dependent upon membership dues, corporate and private donations to fund all programs and events.

As Rutgers Alumni, we are well aware of the benefits that we enjoy, including (but not limited to) a rich network of professionals, entrepreneurs and civic and non-profit leaders within and outside of the state of New Jersey. The students of Rutgers remain among the best and brightest in the world as they continue to find growth at Rutgers University intellectually, socially and professionally. RAAA, Inc. strives to foster and enhance unity amongst Alumni, students, faculty and staff of African ancestry via programming and active participation in the lives of our students. It is our goal to harness the potential of our Alumni network as we aim to be the voice of our constituents to affect positive change at Rutgers University and the community at large. It is our obligation as Alumni to support, encourage and develop our students while providing them with opportunities that may or may not have been afforded to us as we continue to highlight and celebrate the contributions of our fellow Alumni.
