Case Study: Lady Eleanor Holles strengthens alumnae engagement with ToucanTech

Lady Eleanor Holles supports their alumnae and pushes them to be bold

Lady Eleanor Holles, an independent school in Hampton, UK, wanted a better way to connect with its alumnae, support mentoring and careers advice, and encourage ongoing philanthropy and community engagement after students left school. The school worked with ToucanTech to launch Holles Connect, its alumnae community website, to bring past and present students together and strengthen their ties to the school.

With ToucanTech’s platform, LEH created a hub for donations, event promotion, mentorship, reunion activity, and alumnae support, including the 1710 Society, virtual reunions, reconnect groups, and an emerging talent award. The results included nearly 1,000 activated members, over 170 alumnae attending the first virtual reunion, and support for 58 students through financial aid, with a goal to fund bursaries for 100 students by 2025.
