Many alumni dedicate their time and energy to securing donations for the HBS Fund, which plays a vital role in sustaining the School’s core priorities and fueling new ideas and initiatives.

Formed in 2016, the HBS Fund Council helps to devise new strategies for raising alumni understanding of and giving to the HBS Fund. This advisory group of alumni volunteers focuses on the following priorities: HBS Fund Investors Society membership, reunion giving, recent graduates, and international alumni. Council members also solicit their peers for leadership gifts to the HBS Fund.
