The Alumni Committee

The Alumni Committee serves all COLA graduates from 2011 to 2019. The committee provides a variety of opportunities for COLA alums to connect with each other (both older and newer graduates) and build on their leadership and community service skills. Since the start of the committee in August 2019, the COLA alumni members have organized alumni gatherings at SMRT Columbus (prior to COVID-19), created volunteer opportunities with Star House, the Harmony Project, and Children’s Hunger Alliance, hosted monthly virtual events with guest speakers, written monthly newsletters, and increased COLA’s activity on all social media platforms. Recently, the committee has hosted a virtual panel discussion on the Black Lives Matter Movement and organized a campaign to encourage COLA alumni to vote. The Alumni Committee hopes to continue to serve and support all COLA alums and create an even better alumni experience for them and those to come.
