Because no dues are charged for membership, the Alumni Annual Fund serves as the University of Minnesota, Morris Alumni Association's collective operational and philanthropic arm. Alumni Annual Fund gifts support programming and activities for alumni and current students. The board of directors distributes funds to support projects such as Homecoming and regional alumni events, Profile, student activities, and as grants to students to participate in educational conferences, etc.
