FOR ALUMNI RELATIONS TEAMS
Your alumni have wisdom that could change a student's life. Are you giving them a way to share it?
Alumni who feel purposefully connected give more, engage more, and stay loyal longer. Advize turns your alumni network into a living library of career wisdom — and gives your team a meaningful way to bring alumni back into the life of your institution.
15-minute setup · NACE-aligned outcomes · No burden on your team
THE PROBLEM
Your alumni want to give back. Most never get a meaningful way to do it.
Traditional alumni outreach asks for money or attendance. Events are one-and-done. Magazines have shrinking reach. Young alumni disengage before a giving relationship even forms — not because they don't care, but because the relationship feels one-directional and the asks feel transactional.
Young alumni are harder to reach every year.
In-person events and physical alumni magazines have shrinking reach. Digital outreach gets ignored. The formats that built alumni engagement a generation ago aren't working for the alumni you most need to activate.
You want alumni to feel like they matter beyond their donation.
But without a meaningful ask — something that costs time, not money — deeper engagement is hard to build. Your team is measured on engagement rates and dollars raised, and warm feelings don't show up in a report.
Alumni belong to a community for life.
The institutional relationship shouldn't end at graduation and restart at giving season. Alumni have wisdom, perspective, and career insight that current students desperately need. The question is whether your institution gives them a real way to share it.
The result? Alumni engagement stays transactional and event-dependent. Young alumni disengage before a giving relationship forms. And the institutional memory locked inside your alumni network never reaches the students who need it most.
WE'RE HERE TO HELP
A different kind of alumni ask — and it actually works.
Most alumni outreach asks for money or attendance. The Advize Alumni Advizer Program asks for something more meaningful: 30 minutes and a willingness to share your story with students who were once exactly where you were.
We've spent years building the infrastructure to make that easy — for your team, for your alumni, and for the students who need it most. Alumni who become Advizers report feeling more connected to their alma mater than they have since graduation.

WHAT'S AT STAKE
Without a meaningful ask, alumni drift further away every year.
The insight and connections that could change a student's life are sitting dormant in your alumni network right now.
FOR YOUR ALUMNI
Alumni disconnect before a real relationship forms.
Without a meaningful way to give back, young alumni disengage. The relationship stays transactional — and by the time your development team reaches out, the connection is already cold.
FOR YOUR STUDENTS
Institutional memory never reaches students.
The career wisdom locked inside your alumni network — the pivots, the lessons, the honest advice — stays there. Students make life-shaping decisions without ever hearing from someone who walked the same path.
FOR YOUR INSTITUTION
A one-directional relationship doesn't last.
Alumni who feel like they only hear from you when you need something stop engaging altogether. Without a program that gives back to them — and through them to students — long-term loyalty erodes.
Your alumni want to give back. Give them something worth giving to.
