Welcome to the
Yale Club of Los Angeles
About YaleLA
The Yale Club of Los Angeles (YaleLA) is a non-profit volunteer organization serving Yale University’s undergraduate and graduate school alumni throughout the greater Los Angeles area. We are one of Yale’s largest regional clubs in the world, with more than 6,000 LA alumni and 10,000 affiliated members.
We are the proud recipient of the Yale Board of Governors Excellence Award for 2022, for our efforts to revitalize the alumni community in LA following the pandemic.
Our purpose is to enrich the lives of Yale alumni in the LA area and support a vibrant, engaged Yale community here. YaleLA brings together individuals from the many diverse affiliations, interests and demographics that comprise the Yale community in this area. We seek to provide rewarding experiences, foster a strong sense of community, encourage alumni participation in the continuing life of Yale, and facilitate opportunities to serve the greater LA community.
Whether you’re in town for a short visit or have relocated to LA, you’ll find a friendly and welcoming home here!
Supporting our Community in the Aftermath of the LA Wildfires
The devastation and destruction caused by the wildfires in our region has left us heartbroken. Our thoughts are with all those who have faced the unimaginable loss of their homes. We are inspired by the strength and resilience of our community, and the tireless work of those who are working to protect and rebuild it. The Yale Club of LA is facilitating mutual aid by connecting alumni who wish to help and those seeking assistance. Please fill out our mutual aid sign-up form here. We are also mobilizing to coordinate volunteer initiatives and to provide support and resources to those impacted by the fires. Please stay tuned for forthcoming emails and information, and check our Facebook group and Instagram page for announcements. You can also e-mail us.
