Overview

International alumni are often overlooked in campaign efforts. However, a campaign is a great opportunity to engage your institution’s increasingly diverse constituents. While many institutions may be intimidated by the prospect of a global campaign, your shop can successfully accomplish a global campaign by:

  • Identifying your international alumni base
  • Gathering and reviewing important alumni data
  • Planning international events and donor visits
