The Alumni Engagement Challenge
In CASE’s 2025 survey of 398 institutions, the median share of alumni engaged was 14.7%. Traditional methods fall short:
Scattered Data
Contact details spread across spreadsheets and email lists are hard to keep up to date.
Low Engagement
Emails that go unread, low event attendance, and alumni who never see your messages or calls to action.
Disconnected Tools
Separate systems for fundraising, events, mentorship, and communications that don’t talk to each other.
- ❌ Disconnected fundraising efforts with no unified reporting
- ❌ Lost mentorship and career development opportunities
- ❌ No single platform that brings it all together
Alumnipad was built to solve exactly this.
One Platform. Everything You Need.
Alumnipad brings purpose-built modules for alumni engagement together in one platform — so you can stop juggling tools and start building community.
Everything You Need to Succeed
Contact & Membership Management
Centralise alumni data with custom profile fields, and import members from CSV or Excel files.
Event Management
Plan reunions, galas and networking events with RSVPs on every plan, ticketing on the Professional plan and above, check-in tools and post-event analytics. For online events, add the meeting link as the venue.
Fundraising & Payments
Launch fundraising causes with targets, track donations and progress, and collect M-Pesa contributions once your association’s paybill or till is connected.
Mentorship Programmes
Suggest mentors to members by matching their profiles, and manage programmes, applications and mentor–mentee connections.
WhatsApp Integration
Reach alumni where they already are. Send personalised messages, event reminders and payment links on WhatsApp (Professional plan and above).
Email & SMS Campaigns
Send email campaigns to all members or chosen groups, and pause or resume them as you go. SMS on the Professional plan and above.
Academy & Learning
Create online courses, learning paths, and professional development content for alumni. Track completion rates and issue certificates.
Jobs & Opportunities Board
Connect alumni with career opportunities. Employers post positions, alumni apply directly, and your institution strengthens its career services impact.
Elections & Governance
Run secure, transparent alumni association elections digitally. Nomination workflows, voting, results tallying, and audit trails built in.
Multi-Tenant Architecture
Run many associations on one platform, each with its own members, branding and finances, and organise chapters or class years as groups within each.
Alumni Directory & Marketplace
Searchable alumni directory with business listings. Alumni can showcase their businesses, find each other, and strengthen professional networks.
Membership Plans
Offer annual, life and friends memberships, with renewal invoices and reminders sent automatically.
Why Institutions Choose Alumnipad
