Introduction

So you have a project to create change in your community but you don't know how to get your school alumni to help you? College alumni can be a big help and support system when it comes to getting your projects up and running. We spoke to UIF alum Rodolfo Romañach who now works with Stellup.com, a startup that connects alumni with their universities' need for crowdfunding. He said that most alumni want to help out their university, especially when they are engaged with their industry. They want to give back to their community by providing resources (not just money) and help the future of their industries. This wiki will explain the various ways that you can engage this want that alumni have with the needs your project will face.
