Orange County Alumni Chapter

Welcome to the Orange County Alumni Chapter!

WHO WE ARE: Did you know that almost half of our Anteater alumni population remains in Orange County?! Our chapter is dedicated to fostering connection and community in UC Irvine's hometown. We want all Anteaters to know that there is a family waiting for them after they graduate right here in their backyard. We make sure to host a variety of engagements ranging from fireside chats to holiday parties to appeal to all Anteaters. Keep an eye out for our upcoming Beach Party!

Anteaters showed up for the annual Orange County Alumni Chapter Beach Party! Keep an eye out for the 2025 invitation!


A few Orange County Alumni board leaders led a fireside chat in 2024 on finance and consulting for Anteater students!

 

WHY SUPPORT CHAPTER SCHOLARSHIPS: A gift to a chapter scholarship fund will directly impact and support the students' financial needs and also mean more opportunities for our students to positively affect our local and global communities! Since 2018, the Orange County Alumni Chapter has raised over $10,000 and awarded 17 Anteaters!

See how community had a large impact on one of our 2024 Scholarship Recipients, Akil Nafi: 


STAY CONNECTED: Follow our chapter on social media for the latest in events and news! Get involved and help us grow our outreach!


   

 

The Orange County Alumni Chapter hosted their 6th Annual Holiday Party during December 2024 and made sure to feature their scholarship recipients (pictured in the center)!
