What our clients say.


“We sent this report in January; now it's July, and we're still seeing benefits from it. It really helped by capturing the video and having a place to put these stories, and it really, really resonated with our donors. This report was probably one of the most exciting things that I've been able to work on this year.”

— Joe Smith, Executive Director of Donor Relations, East Tennessee State University

Alumni engagement software: FAQs

How can a university advancement team automate personalized thank-you videos for alumni and donors?

With Storyraise Video, university advancement teams can easily send personalized stewardship videos at scale. Record one message instead of hundreds of individual greetings. Storyraise uses your donor data to automatically create a personalized video for each recipient. Every alum and donor gets a version tailored specifically to them, with their name, exact gift details, and individual impact.

What types of digital stewardship reports can higher education institutions build?

Higher education institutions can create a variety of dynamic, web-based digital reports. The most common higher-ed use cases include:

  • Scholarship reports: Deliver a personalized update to each donor, highlighting the specific student or program their funding supported.
  • Endowment and fund reports: Share performance updates and stewardship details using donor-friendly storytelling rather than dry, complex financial charts.
  • Event recaps: Send responsive, interactive recaps of homecoming, galas, or campus events directly to alumni inboxes.
  • Annual impact reports: Replace traditional, expensive print mailings with responsive digital reports built around community outcomes rather than just finances.
How can our department collect student testimonials and impact stories from campus?

Storyraise Collect gathers content directly from your campus community. Advancement teams can build custom forms in minutes to collect quotes, written stories, and photos from scholarship recipients, faculty, and student volunteers. Submissions are organized in a centralized asset hub and sync directly with the report builder, allowing you to easily drag and drop real student stories into reports for each of your donor segments.

How do we track alumni engagement and measure the ROI of our digital stewardship?

Storyraise Analytics connects your institution's storytelling to your fundraising strategy and metrics. An analytics dashboard tracks activity across every Storyraise report and video you share, showing who opens, reads, and watches, giving your team a clear picture of which alumni are engaged and ready for their next giving conversation.
