Since 1977, Havergal’s U.S. Foundation has proudly
represented Old Girls living in the U.S. Through a
partnership with the Havergal Old Girls Association, the
U.S. Foundation keeps Old Girls living in the United States
connected with one another, as well as with Havergal.
The Foundation is going to start a branch network
across the United States and is looking for dedicated and
enthusiastic Old Girls living in the U.S.
Bound by their commitment to Havergal, these
eager volunteers will gather in their respective cities
or geographical areas to organize and participate in
educational, cultural, social, sporting and community
events. Alumnae branches provide a continuing bond
between the Old Girls, the communities in which they live
and Havergal College.
To head up the program, the U.S. Foundation is looking
for Branch Captains in the following cities and states:
• Florida
• Los Angeles
• San Francisco
• New York City
• Boston
• Connecticut
If you are interested in starting a branch in your region,
please contact Sandra Sualim, manager of community
relations at 416.480.6524 or
ssualim@havergal.on.ca.
