About the Alumnae Association of Mills College (AAMC):

Founded in 1879, the AAMC is an independent membership-based nonprofit composed of the alumnae of Mills College, the historic women’s liberal arts college, which was founded in 1852 and based on a beautiful campus in Oakland, CA.

For 170 years, Mills alumnae have achieved outsized accomplishments across all disciplines, from politics to the arts. The majority of Mills alumnae/I consider Mills College to have been a transformative experience in their lives. College trustees chose to merge with Northeastern University in 2021. While the AAMC historically supported the College with fundraising, recruitment and alumnae events, the merger has required new strategy, which we are in the process of and have several exciting possibilities on the horizon.

The AAMC is unlike any other alumni/ae organization in the country in that it is a fully independent 501c3. With an endowment of $3M and a membership base of approximately 26,000 alumnae, the board of the AAMC seeks to re-envision the mission of the organization so that, regardless, we will continue to honor the legacy of Mills College and bring its ethos of aspirational women’s leadership and education, focus on the arts, and care for the individual to create an even more substantial impact – while increasing the value and numbers of our alumnae network.

The AAMC recently completed a successful fundraising campaign to digitize the world-famous collection of the Mills College Center for Contemporary Music.
