New Orleans Alabama Alumni Chapter | National Alumni Association

Welcome to the New Orleans Chapter of the Alabama Alumni Association!

Our chapter is open to membership for all alumni, friends, and fans of the University of Alabama. You don't have to be an alumnus of the University to join - you just have to love the Crimson Tide!

Our chapter is actively involved in the recruiting of high school students in the New Orleans area to attend the University. In doing so, our New Orleans Alabama Chapter awards an annual scholarship, through an endowment at the National Alumni Association, to a deserving entering freshman at the University. Your continued membership contributes to our scholarship fund and allows us to offer member events throughout the year.

It‚Äôs a great time to join our New Orleans chapter. We are continuing to grow and improve our local chapter by creating a monthly newsletter, hosting game watching parties and regular events. Check back often for updates on what we‚Äôre doing.

You will find our local chapter is a fun group of Alabama supporters who enjoy celebrating UA‚Äôs rich tradition of excellence in all that we do. On behalf of our Board, we look forward to seeing you at future events. Roll Tide!

As a local Alabama Alumni chapter, we work directly with the National Alumni Association to host university-related events, recruit local students to attend the University, and most importantly raise funds for our chapter’s endowed scholarship. Our goal this year is to increase our endowed scholarship to $30,000, which would allow us to increase the annual scholarship dollars we are able to offer graduating high school seniors planning to attend the University.

Our 2011 scholarship recipient was Amanda McNair, a graduating senior from Hahnville High School We’re very proud of Amanda and wish her the most success on her freshman year at the University!
