Our Mission and Vision

An younger and more senior alum connect during an alumni association event

The Holy Family University Alumni Association fosters loyalty, lifelong relationships, commitment, and community among all alumni, future alumni, and friends. We advance the interests of our members and the University, consistent with Holy Family University's core values: family, respect, integrity, service and responsibility, learning, and vision.

All graduates of Holy Family University (or Holy Family College) are considered members of the Alumni Association.

Our Vision is to:

  • Create a vibrant community that encourages alumni engagement and loyalty—personally, philanthropically, and professionally
  • Enhance the alumni connection to prospective and current students, inspiring their future engagement as alumni
  • Expand alumni communication and engagement efforts to help shape alumni programs and initiatives
