Dear Yale Alumni, Friends, and Boosters

It is with great pleasure that I write this letter.  The Yale Club of Silicon Valley is actively engaged in bringing you the events that are of interest to our unique local Yale community.  More than 3,000 of us live in the Yale Club of Silicon Valley's service area!

Highlights of some of our recent events: 

• Alumni Schools Committee: High school fair, applicant interviews and reception
• Yale-Harvard Game on the peninsula
• Career Development Workshop
• Meet the Yale Author Series
• Visiting Yale Professors Series
• Yale Whiffenpoofs and Stanford Talisman in Concert
• Yale Day of Service Projects
• NorCal Pre-reunion Reception
• Feb Club Emeritus
• Ivy Plus Networking Socials
• All Ivy Sailing Day
• Japan Quake and Tsunami Relief Fundraiser
• AIDS Walk in San Francisco 

These events were very well attended, and it is very encouraging to see the broad level of participation from our community. Alumni and friends of Yale are always asking for more events spanning a wide range of interests. For that to happen we depend on your suggestions, participation and financial support.  

To grow our Club, I am reaching out to our Yale Alumni community to consider supporting the YCSV.  To encourage greater participation from our alums our Club has no membership dues.  However, we do request voluntary contributions from those interested in supporting the Club more deeply. The following levels are currently offered for consideration:

• Lux et Veritas Level - $1000.00
• Sterling Level - $500.00
• Harkness Level - $250.00
• Bulldog Level - $100.00
• Bluebook Level - $50.00

I encourage you to become a supporter.
