Introducing ClassACT HRX8
Achieving Change Together
ClassACT HRX8 is a Harvard alumnae/i community and a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Our mission is to bring classmates together to address pressing local, national, and international problems and opportunities. We do this by providing a platform where early-stage nonprofits, founded or sponsored by classmates, can bridge resource gaps by leveraging the expertise of our network of classmates and other Harvard alumnae/i.
ClassACT HRX8 seeks both classmates who are launching a “second act” in the nonprofit sector and those who wish to engage with their classmates on issues that resonate. ClassACT HRX8 will assist creatively with, for example, strategic and operational guidance, legal advice, advocacy, and board leadership. ClassACT HRX8 also will facilitate additional support from local governments, institutions, and private individuals.
ClassACT HRX8, while founded by HR ‘78 classmates, is an intergenerational effort. We are committed to creating new or strengthened relationships within the class of 1978 and with the classes of '58, '68, '88, '98, '08, and '18. Our community is a multi-generational virtual network committed to achieving transformational change through alumnae/i engagement.
Our first two Zoom launch events were attended by over 100 classmates and have generated a great flow of ideas and contacts for our sponsored Bridge Projects! The feedback from attendees has been very enthusiastic! We want to continue this terrific alumnae/i engagement and grow our membership. On April 22, we will show one or two short videos to demonstrate the different ways ClassACT, nonprofits, and members can work together. Even though you attended our earlier events, you might want to check in again.
Please join us for this special virtual launch event to meet classmates, engage with ClassACT HRX8 and learn about two of our initial projects.
