Strong Finish for 2012 Alumni Campaign; Big Hopes For 2013

The CEU Alumni Campaign raised more than $87,000 last year, thanks to the generosity of alumni like you. The campaign has raised a total of $420,679 since its inception ten years ago.

CEU alumni contributed more than $31,000 in December 2012 alone, as part of a robust holiday fundraising drive. Consequently, the Alumni Campaign is now only $80,000 away from its ultimate goal of $500,000. (Check campaign statistics here.)

Reunion season for alumni in Kazakhstan

It’s been a busy time for CEU alumni in Kazakhstan. On Saturday, Jan. 5 several alumni met for a reunion in Almaty. Held in a local café, the event was the first of its kind for two of the attendees. A reunion in Astana is currently being planned.

The Jan. 5 reunion came on the heels of a Christmas gathering last month at the home of chapter leader Dilyara Teshabayeva. The event drew more than 10 people, including the Hungarian ambassador, and featured a potluck dinner and games.

Bulgarian alumni group sees FB membership boost

The Bulgarian chapter of CEU Alumni and Friends saw a boost in the number alumni joining its Facebook group last month, bringing its total membership to 110.

The increase came in advance of the group’s reunion in Sofia, on Dec. 27, 2012. The event drew 35 alumni to the Betahaus 'co-working space' and café.

In addition to reconnecting with fellow alumni, the group heard two presentations by alumnus Evgeni Evgeniev on national and cultural innovation in Bulgaria.
