Alumni giving rates have been declining for two decades.

Not because alumni care less, but because the way they're asked hasn't kept pace with the way they live. And the tools haven't helped. The reunion runs on one platform, the giving day on another, the year-round forms on a third – and none of them talk to each other.

No one can see the real participation number, because it lives in four places at once. Alumni engagement is a year-round relationship.

It deserves a system built like one.

HOW IT WORKS

Empower ambassadors. Watch participation follow.

1

Run any moment of the alumni year

A reunion gala, a homecoming event, a giving day, a class campaign, or an always-on donation form. Each goes live in minutes, with your branding enforced automatically.
2

Alumni give through the channel that fits the moment

A personal ask from a classmate, a live leaderboard on giving day, a paddle raise at the gala, a $25 gift on their phone. The ask meets them where they are.
3

One dashboard. One participation rate.

Every gift, every donor, every campaign in one place. Track participation by class year, spot re-engaged LYBUNT donors, surface emerging ambassadors – then export to your CRM. Your team stewards the relationships; the platform handles the logistics.

Run the whole event on one platform.

Ticket to thank-you – every dollar raised at the reunion counts toward the same participation rate as every gift online.

PEER-TO-PEER CAMPAIGNS

Alumni inspire giving

Every ambassador gets a personal fundraising page with their story and reason for giving. Leaderboards between classes spark friendly competition and expand your reach through trusted relationships.

GIVING DAYS

Momentum in real time

Live leaderboards, challenge gifts, and class competition keep giving day moving. Text updates, donor counts, and a live thermometer create urgency from start to finish.

CLASS CAMPAIGNS

Reunion giving, simplified

Give every class its own campaign page with participation goals, progress tracking, and class agents. Social proof encourages classmates to join and give together.

DONATION FORMS

Year-round giving

Mobile-first donation forms accept Apple Pay, Google Pay, Venmo, PayPal, ACH, cards, and DAFpay. Recurring gifts and fund designations are built in for frictionless giving.

MATCHING GIFTS

Double alumni impact

Surface employer matching eligibility during checkout so alumni maximize every gift. More matching gifts without additional staff work.

PADDLE RAISE

Generosity, made visible

The fund-a-need moment in real time. As gifts land at each level, the screen builds – because generosity, seen, invites more of it. Every paddle captured against the donor.

EVENT TICKETING

Fill the room

Branded ticketing for reunions, galas, and homecoming. Tiered pricing, table assignments, and add-on gifts at checkout – with every guest flowing straight into your donor records.

SILENT & LIVE AUCTIONS

The room, all in

Mobile bidding with outbid alerts and live leaderboards. The competition does the fundraising, and no one reconciles paper bid sheets at midnight.

RAFFLES & GIVEAWAYS

A lower bar to give

Let an alumnus participate for the price of a ticket. It brings in the not-yet-donors, turns a first small gift into a giving record, and gives you a reason to steward them onward.

Why alumni teams
are switching to BetterWorld.

Participation rate is the metric that matters. The platform should be built around it.

Boost participation

Peer-to-peer pages turn classmates into fundraisers. Personal asks and class leaderboards drive more participation
than mass emails alone.

Launch faster

Launch giving days, class campaigns, and ambassador programs in minutes. Manage branding and every campaign from one dashboard.

Advancement support

Real people by phone, email, and chat – including during your giving day. When your leaderboard is live and your president is watching, our team is available in real time.

A platform that guarantees
you'll raise more.

All-in-one fundraising.

An Accelerator program that guarantees you'll raise more over three years – or we donate up to $10,000 to your organization.

Helpful support that scales to what you need.

No contracts.
