What We Do
And how you can join!
Social Events
Meet up with PSAA LA
Each month we have at least one social event to connect you to alumni in Los Angeles. During football season, we have three viewing party locations around the city in Studio City, Santa Monica, and Torrance. Throughout the year you can catch us holding beach days, hikes, museum tours, pub crawls, student send-offs, and more! Subscribe to our monthly newsletter below.
Volunteering
Give back with PSAA LA
We take part in a few volunteer events throughout the year including helping out at the Los Angeles Food Bank, supporting beach clean-ups with Heal the Bay, and participating in a food drive for the unhoused. Please reach out to the chapter president if you have an idea on how you would like to give back.
Networking
Connect with PSAA LA
Grow your LA community by meeting alumni from a variety of industries. With one of the largest living alumni associations in the world, there are thousands of Penn State alums in the LA area and SoCal region. We host annual meet-ups so you can build consistent relationships that will lead to personal and professional growth.
Scholarship
Support students with PSAA LA
We are able to consistently offer thousands of dollars in scholarship to full-time undergraduate and graduate students from the LA area thanks to the help of generous donors, a Chapter endowment, and Chapter fundraising. You can help current students and future alumni by setting up a recurring yearly donation or taking part in Chapter fundraising efforts.
