Unlock Alumni Engagement: How to Strengthen Connections and Track Insights

Alumni engagement and giving are at a defining moment. Traditional strategies are losing ground, and development leaders are being called to reimagine how to foster lasting, meaningful connections with graduates. Research shows that alumni who feel connected to their alma mater are far more likely to give.

The opportunity? Move beyond outdated engagement models and embrace what today’s alumni actually want: professional growth, mentorship, and meaningful ways to give back through their time and talent.

Join us for a practical conversation on how PeopleGrove helps institutions build vibrant digital communities, connect alumni across generations, and drive progress on key CASE metrics. Learn how to turn intentional engagement into measurable impact—and build a sustainable pipeline of lifelong support.

Key Talking Points: 

• Beyond Events & Emails: How digital-first engagement keeps alumni connected year-round
• Tracking What Matters: Measuring engagement behaviors that lead to philanthropy
• The Power of Social Capital: Leveraging alumni-to-alumni and student-to-alumni connections for career and mentorship success
