Increasing alumni support for the school

Given that my audience will be the school administrators, I will have to introduce myself to initiate a feeling of trustworthiness. After that, I will add the name of the alumni group, its vision, and its mission. The details to be mentioned in this section include when the group was founded, how the members interact with one another, and the purpose of the creation of the group. Some of the intentions of the alumni group include fostering the relationship amongst the community and the school, support the parent organization goals as well as the administration goals, and increasing the financial support to finalize the projects the school has majored in.
The logical appeals that I will engage the audience with are, given that every one of us in the alumni group went to school here, we believe we have the first-hand information of what the students might be needing and what their experience here feels like. In that accord, we would like to make their lives here in this school as memorable as ours. We believe that being in school enhances one not only academically, but also socially and physically. Therefore, with your support and the parents’ support, we believe we can boost our support towards the school kitty.
To appeal to the administrators’ emotions, I will use a story of how it felt in the school and how the older alumni used their influence to motivate and support us. This will show the impact their support had on us. And help them relate to what we the alumni are trying to establish in the school.
