With more than 2000 members, the Yale Club of San Diego is one of the largest local Yale alumni clubs in the world. But fewer than 10% pay annual dues. It takes a substantial budget to run the club effectively. We rely completely on our contributing members to continue to host exciting and enriching events for you.

Contributing to the Yale Club of San Diego is an easy way to maintain the unique sense of community you experienced while at Yale. Beginning with current students at the low, low price of absolutely FREE right on up to our Nathan Hale Patrons, we have membership levels for every stage and budget. 

Your contributions are tax deductible as allowed by state & federal laws. Our contributing membership year runs from January 1 through December 31. 

• We can afford to send only one posted mailing a year to those without e-mail addresses. Your contribution assures continued contact with all members. 
• Contributing members receive discounts on event costs, allow us to host the Annual Mixer at no charge, and permit us to extend an invitation to our Annual Dinner to matriculating students at a greatly reduced cost.
• We help the Alumni Schools Committee interview over 250 freshman applicants each year and support the annual reception for admitted students held prior to the May 1 decision date.
• We support outstanding students in over 20 San Diego high schools with our Book Award program and reception for promising juniors.
• We plan and conduct San Diego’s Yale Day of Service on the second Saturday of each May.
• Your contributions have enabled us to maintain our website.
• Your contributing membership dues give us the support we need to host fun, enriching and classy events for you and your family.
