Santiago College was founded in 1880 and ten years later the first Alumni Association board of directors was instituted, formed by the first six graduates. It was presided over by Maggie Keil during the long and fruitful leadership of Mrs. Adelaida La Fetra. On the 100th anniversary of Santiago College, the first men graduated and were joyfully welcomed into the Alumni Association.
The main objectives of the association are to cultivate a sense of community among alumni, verify the school’s traditions are continued and ensure the school’s continuous improvement. Among the responsibilities of the association’s board of directors is to appoint three of the nine members of the Santiago College Educational Foundation’s Board of Governors.
The main focus of the activities organized by the association is the participation and integration of SC alumni. These have had an important development in social action, sports activities (mainly rugby and field hockey), tutoring, and community activities such as art exhibitions and bazaars for entrepreneurs. Within social action, various initiatives stand out, such as support for struggling day-care centers and scholarships for SC students. Alumni Association embraces the aspiration of our founders to be factors of positive change in society. These charitable activities are financed mainly through food sales, specific campaigns, membership fees and funds generated from sports activities.
