Event-in-a-Box

Event-in-a-Box is an opportunity for you to plan an event in your area. If you want to connect with other alumni near you—whether you're new or have lived there for years—and you want to plan your own type of gathering, Event-in-a-Box is for you!

WHAT WE OFFER:

  • A staff liaison who will be the point person between you and the Alumni Engagement team for this event. This individual will work with you from start to finish, providing input regarding scheduling the event, type of event, logistics, and more.

  • A communication platform: our office will handle the invitations, including email communications and social media promotion.

  • Event registration support: we will handle the registration and will keep you informed on registrants. We'll also provide the guest list, nametags, etc. for the event.

  • Financial resources: we may be able to contribute financially,  determined on a case-by-case basis.

  • Swag items for attendees: we may be able to provide some UHart-themed items, determined on a case-by-case basis.

WHAT WE ASK OF YOU:

  • Events should be planned at least 12 weeks in advance.

  • Pick the date, time, and location for the event.

  • Be the on-site point-person leading up to and for the event.

  •  
  • Keep track of who participates and share back with us.

We look forward to partnering with you to help create great opportunities for UHart alumni reunions all over the country.

POP-UP EVENTS

Already planning an event with a group of alumni and looking to spread the word? Doing something less than 6–8 weeks in advance? Let us know!
