The LGBTQIA+ Association of Vanderbilt Alumni (LAVA) was created by alumni to connect the LGBTQIA+ community, supporters and allies with each other and the university. We hope you find belonging and support through the LGBTQIA+ Association of Vanderbilt Alumni. Join LAVA today and be a part of our inclusive association!
In the 10+ years since its creation, our group has continued to grow, host events, provide networking opportunities and fundraise for the K.C. Potter Center for LGBTQI Life Fund. Find out what's happening at Vanderbilt today by checking in with the Office of LGBTQI Life.
Make a gift today and impact the life of students.
The K.C. Potter Center for LGBTQI Life Fund is used to support the programmatic efforts of the Center for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer and Intersex Life at Vanderbilt. Your gift will support programming, community building and educational opportunities at the K.C. Potter Center for LGBTQI Life.
