What the 2026 National Alumni Survey Reveals and What to Do Next

Everyone’s talking about the National Alumni Survey. But what does it actually change for you?

📆 On June 18 at 1 PM Eastern, we’re getting into the real story behind the data and what you can actually do with it.

The 2026 National Alumni Survey brings together firsthand insights from 82,000 alumni across 31 institutions. It’s one of the largest looks at how alumni engagement, connection, and giving are evolving today!

But this session is not about throwing charts at you.

Aaron Riley, VP of Sales at Almabase, is joined by Howard Heevner, Executive Director of Annual Programs at UC Berkeley and one of the minds behind the survey, to break down what’s actually happening and what it means for your strategy.

💡We’ll get into questions you’re probably already thinking about:

• What really drives alumni to give, and why so many don’t

• How connection, communication, and trust shape participation

• Why Gen Z and millennials engage differently and what to do about it

• The link between volunteering and future giving

• Why specific, impact-driven appeals work better than generic ones

More importantly, we’ll talk about what you can do next!
