The New York City branch of Yale Blue Green (YBG) seeks to actively bring together Yale alums in the area to foster dialogue, learning and networking in our vibrant city. We curate monthly events that take advantage of our urban surroundings and all the city has to offer. Events always include a sustainability angle and range from alumni talks, museum excursions, and service opportunities to networking cocktail hours. We very much encourage members of YBG-NYC to share ideas about the events they would like to attend or host.
