The Temple University Black Alumni Alliance (TUBAA) connects Black alumni with each other and the university, fostering a mutually beneficial relationship. Supporting Temple University’s mission, TUBAA promotes alumni engagement, networking and philanthropy. We focus on events, community service, bringing awareness and support for the TUBAA Scholarship Fund, and connecting with Black students.
Annual Signature Events and Initiatives
TUBAA’s annual signature events, including Family Field Day and TUBAA Bingo, look to bring alumni together for fun, family-friendly activities and to connect with one another. All graduates are welcomed into TUBAA and are encouraged to get involved and stay active.
Check out upcoming alumni events.

TUBAA’s Annual Holiday Book Drive: Project GIVE collects new books for K–12 students in the North Philadelphia community. Books are distributed to hundreds of children at the TU Campus Safety Holiday Party in early December each year.
Homecoming & Family Weekend
TUBAA participates in Homecoming & Family Weekend by hosting a tent at Tailgate Village. Stop by to meet the board, learn about TUBAA’s mission and initiatives and win some branded swag!
TUBAA Scholarship
After a grassroots effort, TUBAA has endowed the Temple University Black Alumni Alliance Scholarship Fund. The annual scholarship supports students who are majoring in Africology or African American studies, or are involved in the Black Student Union or other African American student organizations.
