Host Family Program – Building Connections Between Alumni and Students

The Host Family Program at Buffalo State University is a unique initiative designed to foster community, support, and meaningful connections between alumni and current students. 

GOAL: Through this program, alumni are invited to share a meal with students, offering guidance, encouragement, and a sense of belonging to those navigating their academic journeys.

On Wednesday, November 20, 2024, at 6:00 p.m., we will host a special dinner at the Jacqueline Vito LoRusso Alumni & Visitor Center, where alumni and students will come together to share stories, experiences, and insights. This event provides students with a supportive network while giving alumni the opportunity to give back in a personal and impactful way.
