Young Alumni Giving

Recorded On: 10/11/2024

OVERVIEW

The first few years after graduation are a very important time when it comes to the relationship between alumni and their alma mater. Bombarding recent grads with unexpected gift solicitations can be off-putting and may jeopardize that relationship. That’s why educational institutions need to find more thoughtful and sincere ways to engage young alumni and inspire them to make their alma mater a philanthropic priority. Doing so will create a stronger culture of philanthropy and set the stage for loyal alumni support for years to come.

Register now for your entire team to learn how to effectively engage young alumni in a way that will lead to a lifetime of philanthropic support.
