The first official Fulbright New Zealand Alumni Association was launched at Parliament in June 2009 and is now inviting members. The Association is open to alumni of all New Zealand-United States educational or cultural exchange programmes administered by Fulbright New Zealand or funded by the US Government, and also welcomes non-alumni individuals and corporations/organisations who support Senator Fulbright's vision for international educational exchange and the mission of Fulbright New Zealand.

The Fulbright New Zealand Alumni Association is run by alumni for alumni, with the purpose of celebrating and promoting international educational exchange by:

Connecting Fulbright and associated international educational exchange alumni with each other;
Supporting
-- the mission of Fulbright New Zealand and
