Yes, APO has alumni associations. They can be chapter-based or area-based. National website has a list of recognized associations. If one doesn't exist, help get one going in your area. Again, the National site gives you info on this.
Become a Life Member. Others have given the details. Application is on-line.
Consider becoming a Torch Bearer. These are people who annually give to APO's endowement. They get listed annually in the T&T.
Consider becoming an Alumni Volunteer. You can help out with chapters (or even be a sponsor for a new one), help out at Sectional level (Chair or staff), help out at Regional level (RD or staff), help out at National level (elected, chair a committee, be part of a subcommittee, be part of APO LEADS), or do a combination of any of these.
If you've graduated already, consider attending the National Volunteer Conference this August. Get way to get started as an alumni volunteer.
