Volunteer Fundraisers
E.E. McQuillen, Class of 1920, Society
Volunteer Fundraisers at The Association of Former Students provide a unique and powerful link between The Association and our former students. This prominent network of volunteers will fundraise on behalf of The Association and increase the number of donors by leveraging their own networks of family, friends and peers to secure Century Club gifts on behalf of The Association. This program provides volunteers with the ability to make a difference for The Association and Texas A&M University by using their time and talent to invite family, friends, and others in their own networks to become Century Club members.
JOIN NOWWho Was E.E. McQuillen, Class of 1920?
This prestigious group is named for a man who made a significant impact on all Aggies: E.E. McQuillen, Class of 1920, was the Executive Secretary of The Association of Former Students and during his 1926-47 tenure made an incredible difference to countless A&M students and former students. He encouraged creation of A&M Clubs statewide and outside Texas; he leveraged the fame of the 1942 Muster on Corregidor to inspire hundreds of Muster meetings worldwide; he focused the drive to build a Memorial Student Center; and by inspiring Aggies to give back, he created student loan funds and opportunity scholarships that allowed thousands of Aggies to stay in school during the Depression and after. During the year, there will be specific campaigns and outreach periods in which McQuillen Society volunteers will participate.

As a former student, I am always looking for ways to give back and help fellow Aggies. Getting involved with the E.E. McQuillen ’20 Society enables me to help thousands of current students by dedicating a little of my time. This small act of service ensures our tradition of excellence and shows the abundant love and gratitude I have for Texas A&M.- Mallory Odom '12
