UW Alumni and Friends Across the Nation

UW National Ambassadors (UWNA) is an outreach organization for UW alumni and friends across the nation, enhancing relationships and increasing visibility of the university.   With more than 65 percent of all UW alumni living outside the state of Wyoming, UWNA offers a framework for these alumni and friends to stay connected with UW.

“The mission of UW National Ambassadors is to enhance and cultivate long-term relationships with UW alumni and friends, gaining their volunteer and gift support for the University of Wyoming. The ultimate result of this bond will be a greater position of distinction for the university.”

This mission is achieved through the involvement of Ambassador Groups in key UW alumni cities. (The following chart reveals the largest concentration of alumni throughout the nation.)
