Digital Class Agency™ by                                            (back to top)


AlumniFidelity's flagship software product, Digital Class Agency™, infuses the time-honored concept of class agency fundraising with leading-edge technology to maximize your alumni participation rate. Using our zero-install software, university development officers invite alumni leaders to create template-based fundraising pages that encourage fellow classmates to donate. As the development staff, you have easy tools to customize aesthetics, establish boilerplate text, censor content, own the data, and receive the funds in a way that integrates with your current process. Compared with traditional phone- or mail-based class agency, Digital Class Agency™ takes a sliver of the time, is less expensive, more effective, and more pleasant for all involved.


University development vs. political/nonprofit fundraising

AlumniFidelity's Web-based, peer-to-peer fundraising platform is akin to those that fuel political fundraising bonanzas. But university development is unique. There is no election instilling urgency, and no heartrending cause. Our specialized tools and data-driven use strategies empower universities to succeed.

What development officers don't have

Development officers don't have perfect contact information for all alumni. They don't have personal relationships with most alumni. They don't have unlimited budgets or unlimited staff.

What development officers do have

Development officers do have bonds with a core of passionate alumni that has done volunteer work in the past. These extra-loyal alumni do have deep ties with their classmates. And the university has a broad base of alumni who would give if asked in the right forum, and by a friend.

Take what you have, apply leverage, lift world

Through AlumniFidelity, the development staff asks a core set of alumni ("champions") to build personal fundraising pages off of a customized boilerplate. The champions have dynamic tools to persuade classmates to donate, and the development office retains all data for the future.

Archimedes declared, "Give me a lever long enough and a fulcrum on which to place it, and I will move the world." AlumniFidelity leverages your champions to yield manyfold donor growth.
