Alumni Engagement and Events Management
Kissflow coordinates an alumni event from planning through invitation, RSVP, and attendance, keeps chapter and volunteer activity visible to the central alumni office, and rolls engagement data back into the alumni database, so a regional chapter's homecoming watch party and a central reunion weekend both run on records the office can actually see.
Trusted by energy operators worldwide
A regional alumni chapter president planning a homecoming watch party is working from a list the central alumni office has never seen.
A university's alumni engagement runs on two speeds at once. The central office runs reunion weekend, a signature event with a fixed date, a budget, and a planning committee. At the same time, a volunteer chapter president in another city is planning a watch party, a happy hour, or a local networking event on their own initiative, often with a guest list, an RSVP process, and a venue the central office finds out about after the fact, if at all.
Both kinds of events feed the same goal, keeping alumni connected to the institution, and both generate data the alumni office needs: who showed up, who RSVP'd and didn't, which chapters are active and which have gone quiet. When that data lives in a chapter volunteer's personal spreadsheet or an event tool nobody at the central office has access to, the alumni database drifts out of date and engagement scoring becomes a guess.
Kissflow runs alumni events as one coordinated system: event planning and task tracking for both central and chapter events, invitation and RSVP management, attendance tracking, chapter and volunteer activity visibility for the central office, and engagement data that flows back into the alumni record. Your CRM stays the alumni database of record; Kissflow is where the events themselves get planned, run, and reported on the same system whether they're in the union ballroom or a chapter's local bar.
What breaks when chapter events run outside the central office's view
Chapter events happen off the record
A volunteer-run local event's guest list, RSVPs, and attendance often exist only in the chapter leader's own tools.
RSVP and attendance data don't reach the alumni record
Who actually showed up to an event rarely makes it back into the central alumni database to inform engagement scoring.
Chapter activity is invisible until a chapter goes quiet
The central office often only notices a chapter has stopped running events once it's been quiet for a while.
Event planning tasks fall through between volunteer and staff
A venue booking, a catering order, and an invitation send depend on a volunteer's own follow-through, with no shared task list.
Six modules. Built so chapter activity is finally visible to the central office.
Every module ships with default forms, routing, and dashboards. Configure each one to your event process in the visual builder.
Event planning and tasks
Tracks planning tasks, venue, budget, and timeline for both central and chapter-run events.
Invitations and RSVP
Manages invitation sends and RSVP collection for any event, central or chapter-level.
Attendance tracking
Records actual attendance against the RSVP list, closing the loop the central office usually never sees.
Chapter and volunteer activity visibility
Gives the central alumni office visibility into what every regional chapter is planning and running.
Alumni database sync
Feeds RSVP and attendance data back into the alumni record, keeping engagement history current.
Engagement reporting
Reports on event activity, attendance, and chapter engagement levels across the alumni network.
From request to system of record in four steps
Plan
An event, central or chapter-run, is set up with its planning tasks, venue, and timeline in one place.
Assign
Invitations go out and RSVPs are collected against the alumni list, with planning tasks distributed to volunteers and chapter owners.
Execute
The event runs and actual attendance is recorded against the RSVP list on a single record the central alumni office can see.
Close-out
Attendance and engagement data flow back into the alumni database, and chapter activity stays visible centrally, ready for the next event.

Connects to your alumni CRM; the alumni database stays the system of record
Kissflow does not replace your alumni relationship management system as the record of every graduate. It is where events, central and chapter-run, get planned, run, and fed back into that record.

Built so chapter activity finally shows up
Chapter activity finally visible
A volunteer-run local event shows up to the central office instead of existing only in a chapter leader's own tools.
One RSVP process for every event
Central reunion weekend and a chapter happy hour use the same invitation and RSVP system.
Attendance actually reconciled
Who showed up gets recorded against the RSVP list instead of ending at the invitation.
Live in weeks
The alumni office and chapter leaders configure event templates and RSVP forms in the visual builder, without a systems project.
Engagement data flows back to the record
Attendance history updates the alumni database instead of sitting in an event tool nobody else can see.
Network-wide reporting
Chapter-by-chapter engagement is visible in one report, not assembled by asking each chapter leader.
