York University has announced its Top 30 Alumni Under 30 for 2024. This distinguished group of alumni under the age of 30 have displayed exemplary leadership and volunteerism to address deep and complex social challenges – both locally and globally.
“The York University Top 30 Alumni Under 30 program showcases the remarkable work that York’s young alumni have done to create positive change at home and abroad,” says Julie Lafford, assistant vice-president, alumni engagement. “The 2024 cohort is an accomplished group featuring creative artists, innovators in science, business leaders and champions for social justice.
The 2024 recipients have applied the skills, knowledge and learning experiences they gained at York towards community service that benefits the public good.
"I was humbled and incredibly thankful to receive this tremendous honour," says Dael Vasquez, a 2024 recipient. "This recognition is a great opportunity to highlight the transformative impact that youth can have when they apply everyday skills in research, writing and community relations."
Launched in 2021, York’s Top 30 Alumni Under 30 program seeks to highlight the success and diversity of the University’s alumni community, while inspiring the next generation of young alumni leaders.
