An Alumni’s Never To Be Missed Opportunities

Alumni association is not a new idea in the history of humanity. What still stands as a challenge to most alumni association across the world is how to galvanize their thoughts, actions and aspirations towards their Alma mater. To say the least, most alumnus are desirous or positive ways to add value to the institution that formed part of their upbringing.

Here are a few tips on how not miss the enormous opportunities that an alumni association offers to its members:

1. Start small:
Never imagine that you can rebuild, reconstruct and rebrand all of that institution with flick of a finger. 

2. Identify the small projects that add greater value
Always look around for those smaller things that makes a difference such as purchasing packet of chalk, providing biros and exercise books 

3. Organize your selves into management elements 
This could be by year of graduation, houses such as red house, yellow house etc

4. Tackle the issues one at a time 
The problems are usually huge and overwhelming. Take it one after another 

5. Appoint responsible and trustworthy leadership
This is key to all of your organizations plans to make a difference 

6. Get everyone on board
No one person should be left out 

7. Create atmosphere for fun interactions
People always want platforms where they can crack jokes and have fun.

8. Have role models
There are definitely people whose presence inspire others. Look out for such people and make them part of your activities

9. Plan before execution 
Failure to plan is a deliberate plan to fail

10. Don’t lose focus 
Remain focused on your goals no matter what.

I hope you enjoyed the tips.

Although a small village comprised of four kindred (Umuoma, Umuhire, Umuduru and Umuokwaraji), it is one of fastest developing villages in Amauzari community.   In terms of the development of education, we have at least one elementary and secondary school in Umunumo.
