Almabase, a leading alumni engagement and fundraising platform, is proud to announce a new partnership with FundMiner, the market leader in fund management, with a platform designed to help institutions manage and maximize their impact. This collaboration aims to complete the fundraising loop, empowering educational institutions to raise more funds and ensure those funds are used effectively for their intended purposes, for everything from student support to program-specific funds.

A Joint Vision to Maximize Fund Impact

Almabase’s mission has always been to make education more affordable by increasing alumni participation. To date, we’ve helped our customers raise tens of millions of dollars annually, directly supporting thousands of students. But raising funds is only part of the equation — ensuring those funds are utilized effectively, and their impact shared with donors, is going to ultimately determine the success of any program. That’s where FundMiner comes in.

FundMiner simplifies fund management by ensuring philanthropic donations are used in alignment with donor intent. Whether it's for a scholarship fund or a specific project, FundMiner provides fund managers with the tools to become better stewards, ensuring that the money raised achieves its original purpose.

Strengthening Donor Confidence with Transparency and Accountability

For educational institutions, donor trust and experience are key to long-term fundraising success. FundMiner’s solution offers customizable and timely impact reporting, giving institutions the ability to demonstrate to donors exactly how their contributions are making a difference. This transparency not only enhances donor confidence but also increases the likelihood of future contributions.

With FundMiner’s focus on ensuring donor intent is honored, we’re excited to partner with them to help our customers better manage their raised funds,” said Kalyan Varma, CEO of Almabase.

The Future of Fundraising and Fund Management

This partnership is a natural extension of both Almabase and FundMiner’s shared commitment to helping institutions succeed in today’s fundraising landscape. By combining Almabase’s expertise in donor engagement and alumni participation with FundMiner’s fund management capabilities, educational institutions will have access to a more comprehensive toolset to maximize the impact of their fundraising efforts.
