Assignment
I work with UWC India on alumni engagement. The goal is to connect with alumni, build relationships, and encourage giving back. Giving back can take three forms: time, treasure (money), and talent. To start with, we reached out to alumni trough LinkedIn, we introduced an alumni survey and sent email newsletters on a regular basis.
Reference
Working with Jeroen has been an absolute pleasure. He has helped in updating our alumni database and in ideating creative solves for engaging our alumni in a more effective manner. Jeroen was instrumental in kickstarting the UWC India newsletter consisting of interesting updates for the globally placed alumni selected by the national committee. We were extremely impressed by his creativity, attention to detail and adherence to all timelines.
