About the Torch Awards

FIU Alumni will celebrate the accomplishments of prominent alumni in style, offering an upscale cocktail reception featuring cocktails, heavy hors d’ouevres and live entertainment. Whether you are supporting an honoree, meeting fellow alumni and friends, or taking the opportunity to network with members of the community, this evening will prove to be unforgettable.

By participating, you are helping to advance our mission of fostering lifelong connections between alumni and FIU. Additionally, funds raised will be used to elevate programming efforts for our community of over 350,000 alumni, ensuring we can continue offering impactful resources and opportunities that sustain FIU’s excellence in academics, research and community service.

Since this is an institution that gives back continuously, it makes complete sense to give back to something that nurtures you and feeds you.
