Puksta Foundation Highlights

360Alumni helped The Puksta Foundation automate, consolidate, and streamline their organization’s operations, and improve engagement with their constituents through a modern, unified alumni software platform, a single source of record, better service quality, and a superior, consistent user experience.

Facing the Challenges

• Rapid growth added complexity to the foundations’ processes. The existing infrastructure couldn’t keep pace, and the operating budget was limited.
• Lack of visibility into scholars’ activity post graduation prevented connectivity for alumni engagement and professional networking opportunities.
• Tracking, managing, and marketing events were done manually using multiple tools.
• Program resources and requirements, as well as online groups for Puksta scholars, were hosted in disparate locations.
