Community · Alumni Association Management Software

One alumni record for each graduate, with batches, dues, gifts and reunions attached.

Manage the graduate directory, membership classes, dues, gifts to named funds, chapters, reunions, mentoring and committee work in one system. Each graduate carries a batch, a programme and a chapter, so a committee member reads the full history before a call. Batch representatives and chapter secretaries see only their own members. The office keeps the central list.

  • Batch sheets and the office list merged into one directory
  • Membership classes, fee rules and named funds set to your constitution
  • Chapter secretaries and batch representatives see only their own members

Alumni Association Management Software keeps directory, dues, gifts, chapters and reunions together, so a committee member sees a graduate’s whole history before dialling. Each graduate has one entry. Annual members renew on their own dates, life members pay once, gifts are receipted against named funds, and reunion registrations feed a single attendee list.

Where it breaks today

What goes wrong before the software.

The directory lives in many sheets

Batch representatives, chapter secretaries and the office each keep a list. A graduate who moves city is updated in one and stale in the others. Nothing agrees.

Membership classes are not told apart

Life members, annual members and one-off donors share a ledger. Nobody can say who is lapsed without reading the receipt book line by line.

Gifts lose the donor’s wish

A receipt carries an amount and a date. The line that said the money was for a named scholarship stays in an email. The wish is lost.

Chapter funds are reported late

A secretary collects dues in another city and sends a statement by post or email. Matching it to the bank happens weeks later.

Reunion lists are retyped

Form entries, emails and replies in messaging groups are copied into one sheet. Guests and dietary needs are the first things to go missing. Mistakes follow.

Mentoring offers are forgotten

A graduate volunteers to guide a student at a reunion. The offer sits in a note, and the student is never told. Nobody follows up.

How it runs

How the work flows through it, step by step.

Illustration with sample figures. Your screens are built around your own records.
  1. 1

    Directory

    Graduates are loaded by batch and programme from registrar lists and representatives’ sheets. Duplicates are merged and each person is placed in a chapter.

  2. 2

    Membership

    A graduate joins as a life or annual member and pays. A receipt is recorded, and an annual member’s renewal date is set.

  3. 3

    Outreach

    Pick a batch, a chapter or a programme, and the dues notice, newsletter or reunion call reaches only those graduates, through whichever channel they actually answer.

  4. 4

    Reunion and events

    A registration page opens for each event. Graduates add guests and pay a contribution, and the committee reads the attendee list and costs.

  5. 5

    Gifts and awards

    Gifts are receipted against a named fund. Applicants go before the scholarship committee for a vote, and the amount paid is then booked to the fund it came from.

  6. 6

    Reporting to the committee

    Dues, chapter statements and event accounts are ready for the treasurer and secretary to read before each general meeting.

Modules

What is inside.

Every module can be switched on, left out or changed to match how your team already works.

Graduate directory and batches

One record per graduate with programme, batch year, department, employer, city and contact history. Changes are logged so an earlier address is never lost.

Membership classes and dues

Define life, annual, student and corporate classes with their own fee and renewal date. A lapsed list shows who has not renewed since the last meeting. Concessions are set per class.

Receipts and named funds

Receipt each gift against a scholarship, hall appeal or library fund. The donor’s stated wish and any pledge schedule stay attached to the receipt.

Reunion registration and attendance

A page for each reunion takes registrations, guests, dietary needs and contributions. On the day, a check-in list marks who actually arrived.

Chapters and batch representatives

Place graduates in city chapters and batches. Secretaries see their members, record local dues and send the head office a statement from the same screen.

Alumni portal

A graduate logs in to update an address, see payment history, renew membership and register for events. The committee decides which fields can be edited.

Mentoring and career board

Record mentors with their field, match them to students and recent graduates, and post openings that alumni share. Matches are listed so the office can follow up.

Newsletters and notices

Send newsletters, dues notices and reunion invitations to a batch, a chapter or a programme. Each message is stored with the list it went to.

Committee tasks and meetings

Assign reunion duties, minutes and follow-ups to committee members. Every duty names one committee member and a due date, and unfinished work reappears on the next agenda.

Event budgets and expenses

Plan a reunion budget, record venue, catering and printing bills, and compare them with contributions collected. Each event closes with a short statement.

Scholarship and grant approvals

Applications, supporting papers and committee votes are recorded for each award. The approval is stored before payment, and the payment is linked back to the named fund.

Solutions inside

The business modules it is built from.

Each one is also available on its own, or inside a system built for you.

  • Contact & Account Management

    The graduate sits as a person under a batch and programme, and employer or city changes are logged beside the older details.

  • Subscription Billing

    Annual members are billed on their renewal date and life members once, so the lapsed list is read straight from the dues.

  • Receipts Management

    Each gift is receipted to a scholarship, hall appeal or library fund, and the donor’s wish is printed on the receipt.

  • Online Booking Portal

    A graduate opens the reunion page, adds guests and pays a contribution, and the committee reads one attendee list the same day.

  • Multi-Branch Consolidation

    Each city chapter keeps its own members and local dues, while the head office reads every chapter’s statement together.

  • Client Portal

    A graduate logs in to see payments made, update an address and renew, within the fields the committee has opened for editing.

  • Job Posting

    Alumni post openings with the field and level, and the office lists who responded so mentors and students can be put in touch.

  • Workflow and Approvals

    An award moves from application to committee vote to payment, and the approval sits on file before any money leaves the fund.

Services

How we would put it in.

Setup, data migration, integrations and anything built on top.

Who uses it

One system, each person sees their part.

For secretaries and office staff

Keep the directory current, send notices, register members and answer graduates who ask for a statement of what they have paid.

For treasurers

Read dues, gifts by fund and chapter statements against the bank. Close each event with an account.

For chapter secretaries

See members in your city, record local dues and events, and send the head office a statement without a second spreadsheet.

For batch representatives

Read your batch list, call lapsed members and run the registration for your reunion.

For graduates

Update your own details, renew, give to a named fund and register for a reunion from a phone.

Reports

The numbers the owner asks for.

  • Members by class, batch and chapter, with renewal dates
  • Lapsed and unpaid dues by batch
  • Gifts by named fund, with donor wishes
  • Chapter statements against bank deposits
  • Reunion registrations, guests and check-in
  • Mentor matches open and closed
  • Event budget against actual spend
Good fit

Who this is built for.

  • University and college alumni associations with several thousand graduates
  • School old-student associations that hold yearly reunions
  • Departmental alumni groups inside a larger institution
  • City chapters of a national alumni body
  • Alumni foundations that manage scholarship funds
  • Professional school alumni networks with a mentoring scheme
Honest answer

When it is not the right choice.

  • A class group of forty friends can manage with a shared sheet and a messaging group.
  • Enrolled students need a different product. Fee ledgers and admission files for students still on the rolls belong with the school and college package, which carries them through each term.
Made to fit

Adapted to your business before it goes live.

You are not handed a login and left to it. The product is set up around your records, your people and the tools you already use.

Membership rules

Classes, fees, concessions for recent graduates and renewal dates follow the association’s constitution as your committee reads it.

Funds and awards

Named funds, pledge schedules and scholarship criteria are entered the way the committee already records them.

Directory migration

Registrar lists, batch sheets and the office register are loaded and de-duplicated, and your staff check the matches.

Chapter structure

Chapters, batch groups and who may see which members are set up with the people who run them.

Messages and payments

Dues notices travel over the channels your members already read, and the payment gateway follows the country and bank where each chapter collects.

Common questions

Questions owners ask before a demo.

Can it hold both life and annual members?

Yes. Each class has its own fee, and only annual members carry a renewal date. The lapsed list shows who needs a reminder before the general meeting.

Can a donor say which fund the money is for?

Yes. The receipt is posted against a named fund, with the donor’s wish written on it. The scholarship committee reads that wish when it decides on an award.

How do chapters send their money statements?

A chapter secretary records each local receipt and closes a period with a statement. The treasurer sees it beside the matching bank deposit.

Can graduates register for a reunion without calling the office?

Yes. They open the event page, add guests and pay a contribution. The office reads a live list instead of retyping forms.

Can we move the batch sheets we already have?

Yes. Sheets from representatives and the office list are loaded together. Duplicate graduates are flagged, and your staff confirm each merge before it is saved.

Can we see how much each batch has given?

Yes. Gifts roll up by batch and by fund, so a representative can read what the batch has pledged against what has arrived.

Do graduates see each other’s phone numbers?

Only if the committee allows it. Visibility is set per field, and a graduate can hide a number from the open directory.

What shapes the quote for an association our size?

Cost follows the membership classes and dues rules, how many chapters report separately, and whether reunions, the portal and scholarship approvals sit in the opening build. Moving the batch sheets, and any link to institution student records, adds effort. Your directory is read and screens are shown on it before the quotation arrives, which itemises each module. Nothing is quoted unseen.

Whose records are they if we leave?

The directory, receipts and event lists stay with the association. The agreement names the file layout used for handing them back.

How long until the office is using it for dues and reunions?

Dues collection needs the graduate directory, batches, membership classes and receipts, so those go live first. Reunion registration, chapter statements, the portal and mentoring come next. Dues lead. The proposal states what the opening release holds, what follows and the dates.

What does the committee prepare in advance?

Keep the batch sheets, member lists and dues register at hand, along with sample receipts and a past reunion registration list. Fund names and donor wishes should be written down. Name the secretary and treasurer as contacts who can check screens, plus a chapter secretary. Bring the sheets as they are. Payment and messaging accounts must be reachable.
