About PennPAC Pro Bono Alumni Consulting
PennPAC is a 501(c)3 independent nonprofit with a mission to harness the intellectual talents and professional skills of alumni of the University of Pennsylvania in a meaningful and socially beneficial way. Accordingly, PennPAC works with nonprofit organizations to help solve their business challenges through the engagement of Penn alumni who serve as pro bono consultants for short-term projects. PennPAC does not receive funding from the University, but rather relies on the generosity of our donors — PennPAC consultants, Board members, Penn alums and others — who believe in our work to provide the necessary financial support. By accepting applications from graduates from all of the schools at Penn, PennPAC assembles consulting teams with a wide breadth of experiences, skills and perspectives. Nonprofits receive fresh perspectives and support tackling business challenges that may otherwise go unaddressed due to time, financial, staffing and other resource constraints. Alumni receive a rewarding, well-designed resume-boosting volunteer opportunity.
