Each year, a group of Howard University alumni return to Howard's campus to celebrate their 50-year class reunion. Reunion events bring a special sense of joy and homecoming to Howard's campus, as former classmates and lifelong friends return to the place where so much of their life's path began. On May 10, the class of 1969 announced  they had raised a total of $1,129,945 in the 2018-2019 fiscal year. Included in this gift was the Howard University Class of 1969 50th Anniversary Legacy Fund, an endowed fund meant to serve as a lasting contribution to their beloved alma mater. This is the largest class reunion gift in the University's 152-year history. continue for more
