THE FORMULA
Total Value = Mentor Giving Uplift + Referral Value (new donors + admits)
Alumni mentors × giving rate × uplift 180 donors
× Avg. gift size ₹5,000
= Mentor giving uplift ₹9,00,000
+ Referrals (engaged alumni × referral rate) 270
× Value per referral (50% of avg. gift) ₹2,500
= Total annual value ₹15,75,000
Why this formula?
Alumni who mentor a current student are 88.7% more likely to donate in the future (Gravyty, 2025) — the primary lever. On top of that, engaged alumni also refer new donors and prospective students into your community; this model adds that referral value using a conservative per-referral value based on your average gift size.
